---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Esther Revivo <estherrevivo@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: tight exam schedule What about our tight 'teaching schedule? Lately I feel that I'm lucky to have a lesson now and then between activities! On a more serious note, I wouldn't use the NY regents as a measuring stick. They were so easy, it was a joke!!!! I didn't do them all, because as anyone my age (56) will remember, a Jewish kid broke into his school's safe and stole a bunch of exams, so in my junior year, (yud aleph) all regents were cancelled. I was one of those 'goody goodies' who studied all year, so was so frustrated not being able to take them..... Good luck trying to find free lessons in which to teach and ladies... happy Pesach cleaning! Remember, children and hubbies are not 'korbanot Pesach.' :) Esther Revivo
