Substituto

One (of many) thing that the educational system here lacks is substitute teachers. Today, I didn't have two of my classes. Let that sink it.

The first one was a PLANNED absence. My Castellano teacher knew she wouldn't be here on Monday. She, infact, told us this on Friday. So do we have a substitute come in? No. We get to sleep in and come into school late.
The second class was not a planned absence. My Ciencia teacher didn't tell anyone she wasn't coming in. Again, no substitute. We were free to roam the school.

A 20% UNEMPLOYMENT RATE AND YOU CAN'T SEE ANY REASON TO HAVE SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS?? Really?

Although I did enjoy the extra sleep.
