I've had kids hurt on tables and still can't get replacements. I don't even require NEW tables, just servicable ones. Deb/Kent

I also go back monday and today discovered that the<br>order for new desks my principal requested for me was<br>rejected. <br><br>The wobbly rickety tables I have always had started<br>dropping LEGS last semester, and they couldn't be<br>fixed without welding so maintenance just tossed them<br>in the corner of my already crowded small room. So by<br>the end of the semester I had 21 kids at three tables<br>which was impossible. I set up a TV/VCR in the corner<br>with all my art history videos and took turns letting<br>somebody "watch TV" (any art video they chose) every<br>hour. It was awful. <br><br>So today I discovered the broken tables were put BACK<br>into my room after having been removed for summer, but<br>since they can't STAND UP they are top-down, like one<br>on top of my desk even. <br><br>It will be interesting to see what I will end up with.<br><br>---<br>To unsubscribe go to <br>http://www.getty.edu/education/teacherartexchange/unsubscribe.html>
