While I was frolicking around LA on Friday my poor husband was being held captive in the dunk tank at his school. I tried calling his phone randomly through the morning and finally at 2:30 he called me back...as he was changing out of his wet clothes. He was in the dunk tank since 9am.--- My poor baby angel! :)Every year when Luke's students make their STAR test scores they get to choose something for the principal to do. Two years ago Luke got "pie'd" in the face by every student. Last year he had to dress up like a woman--for one full day! (I cannot even tell you how traumatizing that was for me when I stopped by his school and he had more make up on then I have ever worn in my life) He had a woman's dress on, wig and full mask on! Nevertheless, the kids get to vote on what they get to do. I thought the dunk tank was a better choice than last years...or eating dog food, worms, whatever. ---But, I wasn't the one in the tank. My husband was a good sport about it because he could have put on some swim trunks or shorts,--- but instead he wore what he normally wears to work. He was in the tank with his tie, watch and dress shoes.
Almost 600 kids got to throw 3 balls each. I think he said he went in the water over 150 times. He called me Saturday morning and said he was very sore. I tried to baby him as much as I could through the phone, but I am sure I wasn't very comforting.
Congratulations Mr. Hogue on making your test scores again. Another year down..... and many more ahead! UGH.....:)

That is awesome!!!
Too funny!!! The kids always respond to a "cool" administrator...that is probably one of the reasons why they always reach their goals. What school does he work at? Bart is back into teaching now and we are enjoying it so much better.
He's a trooper!
