Originally Posted By NikkiLOVESMickey We did have a contract, but this being my first year teaching I didn't even think it was illegal for them to do it (this year has been so hectic that there are times I'm lucky I remembered to put underwear on in the morning). The school board was notified and they were extremely upset. We're a charter school and the school board is our ultimate governing body, but the school has a lot more autonomy as a charter. I plan to work at the school next year, but I guarantee you that my reaction will be QUITE different if the paycheck issue occurs again.

Hopefully, you will soon!

You wouldn't be talking about Holiday World would you? That is one of my favorite parks to visit. The also give you free sunscreen in their waterpark. One of the cleanest and friendliest parks I have ever been too. Also, has 3 of the best wooden coasters in the world.

The parks are stale, the new cartoon "interactive" rides are boring, and prices keep going up. Free soda is the only thing left that disney offers.

At Typhoon Lagoon they sell a refill mug that activates the refill soda stations by a bar code label applied at the time of purchase. It only works that day.
