Today we had our rally; one skit was based on Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz (Follow the road to your goal...). It was fun, and the kids liked it, but we were saying a lot of kids didn't know the Wizard of Oz. How un-American is that!?!?! Teachers acting silly and kids laughing like all get-out. The fun before the storm. The principal letting her hair down and the Superintendent urging the kids to "use their strategies" and "reach your goals." We'll see.
