Est Finis Buna Schools-τετέλεσται

 Thought I'd show off my waste of Divinity School education this morning.....It is the end....or the Greek" It is Finished" to borrow from the Christ....

School is done for 23-24. At least in Buna. I know my nephew in Llano doesn't get out until next week. But they get 3 weeks at Christmas off. 

I know the underclassmen will take exams , but in very few cases most teachers know which students will get the benefit of the " Grade Angel" and will pass the class.  

Enjoy the Summer teachers, you'll look up in just a very few weeks and " I gotta go to school next week." 

Yes, I remember those days. I'm not that old, yet....

To those of you retiring, or just getting out of teaching.....Don't look back, oh, I know you will from time to time and wonder, " What if." 

But in reality, teaching is no longer what it once was. Be glad you are out. I know when I slipped out of graduation when I retired, I literally danced down the sidewalk. 

Look, you'll no longer be constrained by the school calendar.  I've been to Europe several times, and each time, we went was in April in the middle of the school year, heck, went to China in October. 

I know those of you who have to go back in August, well, hang in there, your time is coming. Trust me, it's like you've been released from a long stretch in Huntsville. 

At this point, I would tell something uplifting to the seniors, but in truth.....The world is a " Fecked up mess right now."

And I don't see it getting any better anytime soon.

Dammit to Hell Lamar Jean
