President's Day

During homeroom last Thursday, we discussed what we were going to wear for Valentine's. Red is the right answer in case you were wondering... pink and purple not so much.

So, I quickly steered the conversation to President's Day. I asked them, "What President are you going to dress up as for President's Day?" I got a lot of Lincolns and Washingtons of course, but my favorite response was Benjamin Franklin. I told the kid, "Franklin wasn't a president." He looked at me indignantly and said, "He's on a hundred dollar bill." Which was fairly solid logic. But, we cleared up that misunderstanding.
