Merry Christmas--Shitter was full.

Tomorrow is the last day of school before winter break.  We have a big winter storm heading our way.  Needless to say, students are very excited about the prospects of a Snow Day!  But I really do not think that is going to happen.  However, I cannot begin to imagine how disgruntled students (and teachers) will be if we do in fact get a lot of snow and we still have school on the day before a break.

Or maybe we will cut out snowflakes and watch Christmas Vacation.
