Day Number Five: 12th Grade Service Project

I am definitely looking forward to a long and relaxing weekend after this stressful first week at Saint Therese. Today was a half day, with school being dismissed at twelve noon. I gave a spelling test today and I also attended gym with the third graders. Like most students of any type of school, the third graders sensed freedom was in the wind. They reminded me of my own experiences in elementary school. There was a scary moment today in the extended care program. We were playing football when a kid named John Michael was pushed and tripped while out of bounds with the football and hit his head on the asphalt. Then he began to have a seizure. We called for the extended care supervisor to help. Then the paramedics came to take him to the hospital. Thankfully, he will most likely be okay, but I will remember from now on that if I am ever in any need of medical assistance I will call Paramedic Unit #106.
