Absent Friends Not Forgotten
June’s fiftieth reunion will require rescheduling. I’m sure.
Pi Day: 3.14 -Reblog from the Archives
reblog from the Archives – photographed on Friday the 13th 2015
“March 14 is a great day for fans of math. And pies or pizza. Pi Day, held on March 14 in honor of 3.14, the measurement calculating the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter”

3.14.15 9:26:53 CELEBRATING SPECIAL PI DAY AT SCHOOL
A very special Pi Day. Once in a century. Tomorrow, 3.14.15 is it. Get ready!
Celebrated at school today, 3-13-15._ Spearheaded by Mrs. Mihalic. Creating some spirit!
There were numbers posted all around the hallways on the 800 level to who-knows-what place…..some cool art which I didn’t get to photograph yet.
And my neighbor across the hall…. I went in this morning and said “Hey, where’s your Pi shirt?” and then she turned around and showed me!
The librarian, wearing the machine stitched embroidery shirt her Mother, J.E., created esepcially for her.

Mrs. Mihalic, math teacher, created a wildly spirited event, complete with Pi Day cookies she special ordered from Eat’n Park
In the cafeteria there was a game where students could win a slice of pie. (Similar to a Cake Walk)
Posting this one so you can see how you had to land on a certain number when the music stopped to win a slice of pie.
Photographed by Steve after school Friday the 13th. I’m wearing one of the shirts Mrs. Mihalic created.
A different shirt worn by one of my photography students.Everyone was getting in on the festivities.

I saw it in on a shelf in the glass door built-in cupboards this morning. Finally putting away some special dishes the grandkids had used their last visit.
The Mac ‘n Berries tag on the bottom reminded me of the creator Lexi V.
I bought it from a former photography class student who took ceramics as well.
So I set a place for it on the dining room table, took a picture and cheered myself.
Made an art project out of the Mini-Mes found in drawer
Completing the gradebook, returning materials, getting signatures that I’ve accomplished the required tasks.
My remaining time at school growing shorter by the minute.
Still things to be done, so why not take a break and create something?
I glued all the “students” in the lid of a copy paper box. Well, not all of them but as many of the seniors who graduated last Sunday.
What might look like leftover stuff to others became a wonderful memory to me.
Thanks for the memories.
Bounce House
Community Day 2015 in the High School Gym. The kids love the Bounce House.
Trying to capture the action shot.
The freezing of movement. A gesture.
Motion in a still frame.
My June Plans Revealed at School Friday Afternoon
During seventh period my door got decorated as a surprise, courtesy of Ms. McCann and a team of The Future Is Mine students.
I got some lovely words from some sweet teenagers as they read the door.
In January. I’d put in my letter of intent to retire at the end of this school year and told the adults but hadn’t shared with the students. Now they can help me celebrate.
Today it feels real. 🎓🎉🎏😃
Thanks Ms. McCann
Airbrush Artist at Work
For the people at work series.
This is Beth of M and B Designs. On their site it says you can get a design made, ready for pickup in 120 minutes.
She was customizing t-shirt designs for the young dancers in a dance competition at our high school, using the airbrush and it was fascinating to watch her work. She does all sorts of gymnastics, sports and name designs.
I misplaced her card.
Sorry Beth. Thanks for being part of my “people at work” series.

Find the Typo on My Colleague’s Clock
Monday morning at Common Planning period, my colleague took her clock off the wall to spring forward an hour and showed me the face.
She had told me it had a typo and to read it carefully.
So I read it outloud.
We had a good laugh.
Six bucks at Family Dollar Store.
Thank you Lauren for the good idea for a blog post!
