Christmas Holidays!

Well tomorrow is the last day of school before Christmas break! I am so excited! Not only am I excited about Christmas, but I need a break from school. My students also need a break. They are very antsy and tired of sitting through classes.

One thing that upset me today at school was that no one can say Merry Christmas. We have the daily announcements over the tv and they did a special on the many holidays that are celebrated during this time. At the end of the show they said I hope everyone has a Happy Holiday. I also am not allowed to say I hope you have a Merry Christmas to my classes. Last year I taught at a very small school and everyone said Merry Christmas, so this is a change for me and I don't like it! I never remember any teachers tell me as a student to have a Happy Holiday all of my teachers said Merry Christmas. I remember my mom always wearing a small pin that said Jesus is the Reason for the Season. I am almost certain I might get in trouble if I wore something like that or even said something like that. It is amazing how much things have changed since I have been in school and I have only been out for 5 1/2 years.


So I will end with saying MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! Jesus is the Reason for the Season!
