Newest Korean Teacher

We have a teachers' meeting every Monday. It usually lasts ten minutes. Today it was twice that because of Hailey-teacher. She's new to the school since Lucy-teacher got married a month ago. I don't think she'll last. She's got a real raspy squeal and her pronunciation is hard to understand. 

At the end, Katherine-teacher or Scary-teacher always ask for suggestions or comments and everyone stares at the half-sheet of paper with the week's itinerary and after enough of a silence, they dismiss us. Today K.T. told us that the names of classes are changing from the classroom (color or animal) to the name of the book we teach. This'll show the parents the students progression as each month or two, they get a new book. Adventure 1 -> Adventure 2 -> A3 and so on. 

Hailey-teacher didn't understand it so we sat staring at our half-sheets, listening to her raspy voice, waiting for the silence and it took ten minutes to come. Not a big deal. I shouldn't complain. I just wanted to post something. 

She also calls me Harris.
