Well, on Thursday we had a half day due to Conferences.
Friday no school due to Big teacher meeting.
of course we had Saturday and Sunday off.
Today We got school off because of Martin Luther King day and this morning the school called and we had a Main Water Break.
So no school tomorrow! after a 5 and a half day weekend, For once i want to go back this is going by tooo slow.
Here's the story from this morning if anyone cares.

Superintendent Kent Barnes' boots squished as he walked through ankle-deep water inside Holly High School this morning.
A pipe burst inside a second-floor biology room, sending a rush of water through classrooms and destroying at least one computer lab.
Barnes said he saw three inches of water flowing down the staircase when he arrived at the school before 8 a.m.
"If there had been salmon, they would have been swimming upstream to spawn," Barnes said.
"We lucked out, it could have been much worse. ... I'm glad there were no students or faculty in the building, and I'm very glad someone was in the building when it occurred."
A custodian was inside the school, which is closed today in observance of the Rev. Martin Luther King Day, when the alarm went off. He checked the area and then shut off the water.
The water caused extensive damage in the west wing of the school, known to students as the beige and blue pods.
Employees from Jarvis Construction in Harrison Township have begun working on sucking up the standing water in the carpeted hallways and classroom floors while district employees are surveying the damage done to technology equipment.
School is canceled for Tuesday.
