There's no telling for who it is changing
Mr. Husband got offered a new job today. It is $5 an hour more than he makes right now, it will be 40 hours a week, he will be treated with respect and it's something that is more closely related to what he likes.
He is over the moon.
I'm so happy for him.
In other news, I'm so sad, angry and tired. I have had many concerns about one of my students. I requested a meeting with his parents. His mother said she would come today after school. Today, during the school day I saw his IEP. Yes, that's right, he already has an IEP because he has been a special Ed student since he was 3 years old. I just learned this today. His cum (permanent record to non teacher folks.) is two inches thick. His Special Ed folder is three inches thick. I'm sick that this kid has been in my class for six weeks and I didn't' know this.
I know that this is not my fault. I had no way to know this. His files just showed up last night. I'm just stunned that this is true. I'm glad that he has paperwork because he will start getting help much faster this way but he should have been getting help this whole time.
I had to tell his mother that I just got the file today and that I haven't even had a chance to look at it yet. It made me look bad and there was really nothing that I could have done differently.
I'm just sick over this.
Sick but loving the new hair do.
Sick but loving Mr. Husband's happiness.

Mr. Husband is rockin it hard core!!!! GO MR. HUSBAND!!!!!!!!!!! ANd don't worry about the IEP, the school should be telling you what students have an IEP and should get that documentation to you. Ideally the parent ahould have also given you a note/call that her son has an IEP and do you haveit/have you read it? This is just another bump in the road! And make the Sppech get there on time, or report her for failure to provide services :)
Mr. Husband...you are awesome.
BFF, PLP, teacher of the young, let it go. You have made a point with this case, but as for now, it is in motion and things will happen. It is not woth feeling sick over though. Really...you know that worrying does not fix a problem. Actions do and you have taken action. Rejoice in the happiness of life.
