Dear Students,

I needed to let you know what happened last week after I returned from Dance Competition on Monday, November 11^th.  Dancing with the Stars phoned as they saw me perform and asked if I would like to compete for their show….NOT!!!!  I WISH, but NOT!

I wasn’t feeling great on Tuesday and I attributed that to a long week-end, but as it turned out I had to go to the hospital for surgery – my gallbladder was removed. So that means, I have to put my dancing shoes away for a while and my teaching shoes.  L

I will be out this coming week:  November 18^th – 22^nd per the doctor’s orders.  I plan to be back on November 25^th.  I believe Mrs. Cobb will be your substitute teacher for the entire week.  I am not comfortable assigning homework when I’m not there, so NO HOMEWORK FOR THE WEEK.  That makes me feel better already.  (I felt terrible not be able to communicate with you!!!!)

My expectations are still the same:

1.       Be helpful to the sub.
2.       Be kind. (I don’t want a negative report left on my desk.)
3.       Do the classwork that is assigned.

I will be checking emails and Edmodo.  If you have any questions, we can communicate via those venues.  With or without a gallbladder, I do need to let you know that I would choose “Teaching” over “Dancing with the Stars” any day!!!!  J  See you soon!

Love, Mrs. Ward
