This past Tuesday, Andy and I stared at each other with shocked looks on our faces. We had spent the past 10 minutes telling students they could not go back to class and actually barring the doors that enter the school. Students arrive to Pardes so excited to get into their classrooms and see their teachers that they are running down the hallways way before class begins. We try to keep our students in the lobby until 5 minutes before class in order to give our teachers time to set up their classrooms and prepare for the day, but our students are so excited about their class, they just can’t wait! What a wonderful problem, students eager to get to their classrooms each day (now, if only we can transfer that excitement to early Sunday mornings :) )
