“Attention teachers and staff,
the army is short a few —
illness, family commitment,
exhaustion have taken a toll.
Please consider
where you can help,
perhaps take a few students
into your raft
as we weather
this storm of a day.
Remember,
the 1,000+ students
will not be mindful
of your extra burden.
In fact,
the needs are greatest
when the resources
are strained.
Good luck today…
you will need it.
