Monday through Thursday of this week found me at Falcon Ridge Middle School teaching with what we thought were twenty-three thirteen through sixteen year olds how to be Water Safety Aides (WSA). It was to be our largest class ever!
One student never arrived. Down to twenty-two.
Student Two arrived. Sadly, I don't even know her name. She had a funeral come up and would be gone Tuesday and Wednesday. We sent her home and rescheduled her for the August classes as she was only thirteen. Down to twenty-one.
Gabby arrived. She is sixteen. She could be in the WSI (Water Safety Instructor) class and earn $3.00 an hour more! It took us about fifteen minutes to convince her, but she switched classes. Down to twenty.
First day swim test, Mikayla could not even finish. She became "sick" and never returned. Down to nineteen.
Second day, we got a phone call from Ben's family. He no longer wanted to be a WSA. He was dropping the class. Down to eighteen.
Emily refused to teach. No practice teachings, no need to stay in the class. Down to seventeen!
We had a great week!
