2016-05-17 06:27:13 PM fahmed50 how did you make spin board?
2016-05-17 06:27:18 PM valerieg I have a question-- Our paid Exercise Teacher called in sick today, so I presumed that her activity is cancelled and I can do something else instead. My AD came in and told me that I have to exercise because that's what's scheduled. She also said the state would cite us for changing the schedule. However, It's posted on all calendars that activities are subject to change. So, what's right? I'm really frustrated right now.
2016-05-17 06:27:18 PM csesteaga my residents love that game loteria
