The classroom has been wickedly hot since day 1. It gets up to about 116 degrees in there, every single day. We have 2 fans blowing, blinds pulled down, the works and we're still sweating, every last one of us, young and old. But today the heroes came and fixed the a.c. Sadly, as they were fixing it, a parent got involved and insisted that a refrigerator be brought to my classroom so we could have cold water. She also brought in a third fan. The custodian was not happy with me, nor were others who hold authority. I kept telling them that I had nothing to do with the parental assistance/insistence, but I could tell they doubted me. At any rate, the room is cool now, and that's all that matters. A few kids complained of the cold about 20 minutes after the repair, but I told them they weren't allowed to do that.
