Today is the second straight day (out of 3) that we have our "high-stakes" PSSA testing. Aside from the fact each of my students is utterly confused/frustrated, the test provides a completely inaccurate picture of their abilities for a myriad of reasons. Nonetheless, PSSA testing days are incredibly long and stressful. To improve the tests, perhaps they should require teachers not only to have a test distribution manual, but a flask of Kentucky's finest.

Quote of the day: "Banana head told me to go down here." (reference to me)

My question is whether they enjoy calling me banana head because I have blond hair or if it's just that my head looks like a banana. I do, in fact, like bananas.
