Stephanie took her four fifth-grade students - all of whom will be in English as a New Language classes next year, and all at a new school with no other students from their current elementary school (the non-ENL students, who live near the elementary school, are zoned for another school, not the ENL magnet elementary school) - to the middle school where they'll be attending. They got a tour of the school and talked with the assistant principal, guidance counselor, and Stephanie's counterpart, the middle school ENL teacher (pictured above). (As part of their regular mixed ENL and non-ENL student class, these students already visited the other middle school, where all of their classmates will attend.) Meanwhile, in both of these schools voting continued throughout the day in the Indiana primary (both the presidential primaries and local primaries, including those for the school board in Stephanie's district - where - among others - the school board member who's opposed the teachers' union's contract proposal but who visited Stephanie's classroom last month - is up for re-election [see "Superintendent's visit" entry]). . And the clean-up continued down the street from Stephanie and her students' current school, where an inn/bar at a major intersection a few blocks from her school burnt two nights ago.
