Something new

At my job/school we are trying something new.




We are going to record all the children who come into our office by name and we have made a log where we are going to check why they came in. Sounds easy enough but can we keep up?

We are doing this for several reasons. The most obvious is to record an injury for when a parent calls mad and asks why their child came down and what we did to them. As you read this, you question yourself and say, "A parent calls mad? Why would they be mad?" And that is because you are not that kind of parent. Enough said about that.

Another reason is to document our frequent flyer's. We see the same children over and over for nothing. As a funny note we put tattle tailing on the spreadsheet.


It will be interesting to see how many children we average in a week. I say hundreds! No, not really but we do have a large population at our school.
