So, I got April Fooled today.  I even told Tara last night before bed, to be prepared.  I was on alert all morning long - you have to be when you work with 11 and 12 year olds.   During my 2nd class, I was called down to the office.  "Strange," I thought, but off I went.  The kids were doing individual work, so I figured, no big deal, I'd be right back. 
When I got to the office, no one knew why I was called down, so I headed back to my room.  As I round the corner, I can see that the row of desks in front of the door are empty.  "Awesome, I've been fooled," I thought slightly irritated.  I quickly checked the room and ALL 28 of my students were GONE.   Not hiding, GONE.  I checked the bathrooms and outside, before I realized they had done a really good job.  At this point, I'm no longer irritated, but highly amused.  After checking with/accusing 2 teachers and the PE coaches, I walked back to the room ready to give up.   They had come back while I was in the gym.  We laughed, they were proud of themselves, it was good.  Turns out a teacher on another team took them to hide behind the stage. 
Then I had several students stay after school to Bluetooth songs to me.  It was fun.  Might have to do that again.  But if you want the Apple Bottom Jeans song, I can hook you up!!!

I miss you too! I had a good laugh about your post. Was that your students' idea or the other teachers? And, yes, next time we are together, I want the apple bottom jeans song. Seriously.
Sounds like a fun class!
I want the Apple Bottom Jeans song! It reminds me of the four of us breaking out in song at Pinnacle Mall.
