Yesterday, work included ViewSonic workaround to get teacher back to presenting, mopping up a spill in the hallway, and securing a bathroom after a threat was found written on a wall. Today, I covered five language arts classes WHILE keeping the library open. Wooooo!
It took me seven months and 45 minutes this morning, but figured out how to print bar code labels through Destiny that aligned. Had to run the report, download it, open with Adobe PDF, change the settings, and VOILA!
Happy Book Birthday to Land Slide by Betty Culley! 🎈🎁🎈🎁🎈🎁🎈🎁🎈🎁🎈🎁🎈🎁🎈
