Of Note
When my son and I walked past the school office this morning, we saw an admin talking on the phone, holding a wounded rat on her shoulder. Apparently the rat had gotten a lump removed, but the stitches had come off too early and its companion rat was "caring" for the wound too vigorously; additional stitches were required. What's better than PreK?
