Ok so our kids have had it with Edgenuity....not to mention parents have had it with snow days....but, after a snow day my kids return to school; dreading Edgenuity. Shortly after arriving and going to said dreaded lab, I get a text showing me a slip of paper. This paper (hopefully featured image) essentially spells … Continue reading Adding Edgenuity Classes!!?? REALLY!

Love to watch and listen to people – especially in today’s society – seems so many people have NO CLUE someone, somewhere is watching or listening
PERFECT Time to use Edgenuity
Well...congrats East Jessamine....kids have missed 4 more days of school because of the frigid temps. Would have been a PERFECT time for kids to focus on Edgenuity....if it wasn't LOCKED. Assessments, locked. Lessons, locked. I don't understand. Kids are being held responsible for grades....punished even...yet, who's responsible for the Edgenuity problems? Was told tonight of … Continue reading PERFECT Time to use Edgenuity
Is There A Light At The End…?
Is there a light at the end of this tunnel ? I think so. I admit, there have been brief moments where I feel defeated and quitting surfaces my mind for just a moment. I know better! I am NOT a quitter. People have GOT to start speaking up! ANYONE can watch! I spoke with … Continue reading Is There A Light At The End…?
Unlocking with Strings Attached
As if the time between the lesson and being locked out of a quiz is not enough....how about this.... When teacher was asked to unlock assessment/quiz so the student could work on a second attempt (of 3), they were told "not until you give me (in writing) the corrected answers to the first assessment". REALLY?? … Continue reading Unlocking with Strings Attached
Updates-“Working at Your Own Pace”
The purpose of edgenuity is for kids to be able to "work at their own pace". After a semester of this, you would think the kinks would be worked out and I would not be bringing this to you. An EXAMPLE of how the use of this educational tool is being so underutilized in our … Continue reading Updates-“Working at Your Own Pace”
Common-Core/Standards Based/Edgenuity….all buzz words
Please bear with me a moment. I am TRULY ranting! I am so fed up with the education system that I am begging for someone to just say I am the insane one and put me out of everyone's misery. Slept in today, something our family does not do often. I have two active teens. … Continue reading Common-Core/Standards Based/Edgenuity….all buzz words
Who Do We REALLY Serve
Soapbox moment that has to be said. I have never understood how churches/religious organizations can raise an enormous amount of funding for so many people to go so far away to help people that will most likely NEVER help themselves. But a local group of musicians, schools and such cannot sqeeze a dime out of … Continue reading Who Do We REALLY Serve
VOTING
OK...so I don't really get into politics...there's enough members of that club already. I do have an opinion and I have the right to state that opinion. I "choose" not to state that opinion daily through social media as if I am the ONE who will sway the membership levels of politicians all over America. … Continue reading VOTING
I Feel Like A Celebrity
It has come to my attention that every move I make is important to a select few...I call my stalkers. It has gone on for YEARS...no matter how far I move away from them, it seems they find a way to stalk me. Over the years, I have just accepted it and figured that with … Continue reading I Feel Like A Celebrity
Picking Back Up
My last posts were indeed a rare occasion, I cannot seem to get into a blog routine. Since then, I guess I drifted off and forgot to hit PUBLISH --- not really, I forgot to type anything. Not that it has NOT been in my head...trust me. I am going to have to start recording … Continue reading Picking Back Up
