Vacant is to Open as Occupied is to....

"Wait, coach, whats that "O" word and what does it mean?"

Yes that is the question one of the 11th-12th grade varsity softball players asked on the field trip to their game yesterday. I couldn't believe it.

In other news, all students are now standing outside in 15 degree weather for 15 minutes while waiting for the bus... in short sleeves and shorts. Oh and its snowing too. (Not really, but apparently it must be cold according to parents so we must be insane to make kids wait for the bus. The real temperature in the mornings has been in the low to mid 70's.)

We've had great weather here in Michigan too. No fog at 5 am then it rolls in very thick by 7/7:30. Gotta love this time of year.

Wow, people love to exaggerate. At least they have buses! and they don't have to walk 5 miles, up hill, with no shoes, in 6inches of snow.....

You mean kids have to wait at a bus stop?! The horror! Next thing you know, you guys will be asking them to ride on a bus WITHOUT SEATBELTS. :)

Aren't parents hilarious?
