I'm not worried about her, lol.

The elementary age kids are not really difficult- it's the older ones, middle school and high school who are the difficult ones. They are way behind their peers academically, and are the ones who cause most of the disruptions.

The special schools have to take a wide age-range of students into the classrooms because of tight funding. So we have 8-9 year olds in the same room as 17-18 year olds, all trying to learn English at the same time.

"Wow! Animated avatar! Great!"

Thanks to Ironduke for getting it back working again.
