We teachers, we go with the flow. We are ready for anything, almost, because we’ve very nearly seen it all. So when we open our classroom door come Monday morning only to note that the ceiling, if not the sky, has fallen, what do we do but collect a few materials, park our first period students in a room with a teacher on her planning period, go in search of available classroom space for the rest of the day, notify maintenance, and convince the superintendent, who probably needs no convincing, that we need to check the rest of the ceilings over fall break.

Amazingly, maintenance, not to be outdown by the whims of gravity, installs a new ceiling by the end of the day, properly anchored to studs above.

Fortunately, though Monday was Monday only moreso, tomorrow is Friday come what may.
