Actually it isn't global warming at all, it is just the fact that we live in desert and it is really hot! We are getting some triple digits already and that will last us clear through next september possibly october. My kids are way beyond wanting school to end. I sympathize with you on the grades thing. It is so hard at the end to push them to get the one last grade that will make or break them...and discipline is the only way to handle that stuff sometimes. So, my prayers go out to your son, to you and to all those teachers out there dealing with kids who are just ready for summer vacation to begin!

I still have flannel sheets and a down comforter on our beds. Kid's school does the big wind-down in the last ten days. We take her out early and have her do an independent project where she does a photo-journal and e-mails her teacher a report on where-ever we go on vacation. That way, I don't feel frustrated when I hear that the kids are sitting around playing board games for the last week of school. We cope with the "kid going to school with rich kids" monetary problem by saying no to a lot of the social stuff. It’s been between 40 and 50 degrees here lately.

But we are where we are, and I can't afford it, so we have to make the best of it. The bad thing is I moved over here from Antioch thinking I was doing the best thing for my kids by getting them out of that atmosphere and brought them to a far worse school.
