THE GOBLET OF FIRE DRILL

Practice, practice, practice those fire drills! I wonder if having fire drills really make a difference. I was at my daughter's school today at a meeting that was, of course, about my daughter and there was a fire drill. Those kids sauntered out very slowly. I wonder how many of them would have made it out if it had been a real fire? My daughter has been chosen by the Goblet of Fire. She will have to change her classes so she will be in full inclusion. Sort of, a kind of fire drill. Let's see what she can do now, in case we have to put out the fire later. I was so grateful for the teachers that asked for the meeting and advocated for my daughter to ratchet up her education moving towards that regents diploma. Sometimes, good can happen and good people can help a child succeed. So, now we will hold our breadth and hope no fire comes. Or, she wins the tournament with the help of some wizardly magic.
