I was surprised to see today's headline about teachers' cutting classes, but I thought "cut" could have more than one implication. However, the sentence following said that 600 teachers cut classes to extend their holiday. How do they know that was the reason? I could see why they might say, "possibly to extend their holiday." But statistically it didn't look good. On any day about 7% of the teachers are absent. On Fridays about 9%. But yesterday 12% of teachers called in ill or had a family emergency or some such thing.
Strange when this is the first Wednesday since I started first grade that we've had Wednesday off!
