Another Year Finished

Well, almost. The students are finished, at least! There are still a few more days left for teachers.

As I spend today putting the library back in order (thanks to the wonderful assistance of some JROTC guys!) and assembling the green screen (the support system finally arrived from back order!), I have realized the importance of giving precise information.

For instance, when purchasing a 10 foot tall, 20 foot wide green screen support system, and the accompanying green screen, one reads the fine lines on the website carefully. When it says, "3 inch pocket sewn on one side of the green screen" and the support system is 20 feet wide, which end of the 10 foot by 20 foot cloth should have the pocket? Anyone? Anyone?

Well, according to the company's customer service I am supposedly the only customer in 25 years to expect it to be on the side that would go on the horizontal bar...

That's right. The pocket was sewn (and seemingly is always sewn) on the shortest side. Fortunately we have a wonderful CTE teacher who teaches Fashion and is helping me to fix the problem tomorrow so our green screen project corner will be fully functional.

And the company's webmaster is supposed to have the website fixed by tomorrow as well.

We shall see.
