All quiet on the western front today. (How much of a nerd am I that I considered my school's geographical location in the city before going with that phrase? Although technically, the library is at the south end of the school...southwestern front? Nah.)
Only one of the classes scheduled in the library has come in so far. Of course, it was during that class that I was called out to the AP's office to explain to the parents/guardians of the second girl in this post that, yes, I did see the offending child sitting in the vicinity of a computer with Bebo open on it. She decided to go the plausible deniability route. The boy who logged her on was the one who went to the proxy site and opened Bebo. She didn't report it because she figured he would get in trouble since it was his login. Gritted my teeth when she claimed that she wasn't actually sitting in front of the computer, just nearby. I would not be quite willing to stake my immortal soul on it, but I'm about 98.6% sure that, not only was she sitting in front of the computer, she was actually doing things on it. But I'm sticking to my ethics and not going to contradict her if I can't remember for sure.
Got to stand in the office for several awkward moments while the guardian-type-people pleaded for another chance for their Darling Offspring, since she's never been in trouble before. (Yeah, she's never been in trouble before. That's what got her suspended/expelled from her actual school and sent to The Alternative School.) The poor AP was looking rather worn. They could pay me enough to be an administrator, but there's not a district in the country that would.
The STF has apparently decided to accept my groveling of yesterday and act as if she were never upset with me, and also to tell me that since she is hosting some District-wide forum on school violence, I get to babysit two of her classes next Tuesday. Should be interesting.
