Take Friday, and Monday off (holidays), so that should help with the transition?

ouch!  is that due to some kind of unique scheduling reason or is that just how it’s going to be for the term/immediate near future?

 

 

till a student tests positive which is inevitable and then most schools will have their usual knee jerk reaction even tho they've been told not to.   

Well there sure will be a lot of grannies breathing a sigh of relief not having expected 24 hours a day children for a couple of years ????
