Right before we left for our wonderlab field trip yesterday, I snapped and sent a peep to the office and would not let him come with us to the trip. The snapping was far from a random spark, it was the kind of snapping that's resulted from being sawed at all day long relentlessly. Still it was sad. I've never left a child behind before.

Did you select the music, Take Out the Trash, as apropos??
This is sad - no one wins in a situation like this. I have been the teacher to stay behind with the eighth grade teammates who are not qualified to fieldtrip, and I didn't like it.
Can you provide more info on the photos? I like them.
