Palm Springs is beautifully warm I must say. I think I'm beginning to thaw out from the Pacific Northwest's winter ridiculousness. Portland wasn't much better weather wise, but it was still really good to see Heather, Brittany, and Jenn. We ended up spending most of the day at the Portland Zoo. It was a lot of fun and I really miss not having them around much anymore. I feel bad for Heather though, her CT completely messed up her student teaching, lied about what she had accomplished of her requirements, and won't let her back in the classroom. Now she can graduate, but she can't get her teaching certificate. It's pretty bad. Hopefully she'll get it all taken care of this year and not have to repeat her student teaching in the fall. Not especially pleased with Eastern either. For some unknown reason I have NC under my grade for student teaching...there better be a good reason because I did everything my observer and my handbook told me to do. I guess I'll find out when I get back. For now I'm just going to enjoy the sunshine.
