I work at a private middle school 2 days a week as part of Epik. I came into the teachers office today and half the furniture is missing. I asked what was going on and was told the school board is coming to inspect their books today. Hence, hiding everything..........

Has anyone else seen this happen?

We have the inspector / supervisor here in our school today as well.
It is not an irregular occurance.

Not sure about hiding the furniture though. Shocked We certainly didn't do that here. In fact the opposite is true. They spend a couple days sprucing everything up here (including resurfacing some of the desktops that the students have trashed over the last year) and lots of moms in doing "spring" cleaning.

I wish they'd hide the furniture from my English Zone and forget where they hid it. We have padded computer chairs on wheels. Kids are always pulling out the stuffing and falling off their chairs in the middle of class.

Whoops. There goes another one.
