    I teach elementary special ed and my son (now 20) is similarly gifted and identified in K. Is the private willing to work with you?

    What to do for one day in Charleston

    I agree with Carmella's, amazing cakes. We like Page's Okra Grill in Mt. Pleasant for a wide variety and everything we've tried has been delicious. If you are near Folly Beach, the Pineapple Hut has a version of a dole whip.

    Another fight and no one to stop it.

    I would be willing to bet there is more to the story than reported. Since that clip shows the non matching family using racist language, that's probably where the original disagreement started and we are missing some details about what happened/what was said during being passed in line, etc.

    My daughter is getting ready to graduate with a BA as a Studio Arts major from a public liberal arts college. She will have a double minor in art history and dance. I had the same reservations and also pushed for a marketing minor. If not for covid/virtual classes, she may have kept her arts...

    How to deal with a person who is constantly bringing up past transgressions and just will not "let it go?"

    With my students who fixate like this, I've found the only way is to calmly and firmly shut them down. Repeat and don't give in when they want to vent about the past. Eventually they stop bringing up past issues and we can all move on.

    slo’s THURSDAY 4/14 poll - Curbside Pickup

    I used it for groceries pre-pandemic and continue to use them for all kinds of pick ups-groceries, Target, Walmart, etc. My kids are in college and I'm healthy and teach full time. It's just easier for me to put my list together over time. My energy level can be an issue, sometimes I have...
