On that last day of school we take the eighth graders to the pool. It's a fun way to spend the last day with the kids. Apparently there has been a tradition of throwing the new teacher in the pool. I've been at Gahanna 3 years and have never been in. My first year, a girl who couldn't swim decided to jump off the diving board, and almost drowned. Last year there were tornado warnings, so we didn't go. Some of my fellow teachers have decided I'm still due my baptism, and have been telling the kids they needed to get me. All week long, kids have been taunting me about how I'm going down, and I'd better watch out. I guess I'll know to wear my suit under my clothes that day, or bring something to change into.
We had dress as nerds day last week. I really get into these dress up days. Here's a great picture of me.
