1. Exchange student.

Our family hosted an exchange student for a year from Serbia. They are just great kids, and we're still family. Those poor family had to consider the gun violence in this country, but I'm sure the student wanted to come. Work so hard, and a nobody ends it. Tragic.

2. White House U.S. Flag is at Half Staff today... What a Joke!

We've seen the serious response from Parkland, Fl; "March for our Lives".

The Orange Clown won Galveston County, Texas, where Santa Fe is located, by 25.

Be mindful of of how the community of Santa Fe will respond.

4. I feel so badly for the teachers and the sub who died especially.

Teaching is tough enough, this makes it unbearable now. My teacher friends have been telling me how it is getting worse and worse and this is one more issue they have to deal with.
