Weights and Measures

Last week, the school inspectors visited KEMPS.  They spent two days meeting with teachers, reviewing paperwork and office processes, walking around exploring campus, etc.  It was a stressful two days for the staff but it also seemed to spark some good conversation about teaching.

One of their requirements was that we update the student record cards with heights and weights.  There isn't a scale at school so we had to improvise.  There is a spring scale used for weighing flour, rice, etc.  So the students had to hold themselves up on the spring scale while a teacher read their weight. 

It was sort of like the President's Fitness test gone terribly wrong because not only did you have to do a pull up in front of everyone but then they also yelled your weight out for the teacher to write down.  But I'll say it ended up being a pretty funny moment.
