Has curiosity ever killed the teacher?

Okay, so I've had students with out of school suspensions before. I am always *dying* to know why they've been suspended. Right now, I have two students on our of school suspensions. And again, I'm dying to know. I always worry that their unexcused absences will result in their failure and untimate dropping of French, particularly when they'll be gone for TWO WEEKS. I have to give them the work to keep up with, but they;re not to be given credit for homework.

There are a couple students whom I could just walk up to and say, "So, what'd you do?" ... but not many.

We usually can find out via our computer system at school and if that doesn't work, word always travels fast through the kiddies!

Yeah, they block the discipline report for us. I guess we're a gossipy bunch ... imagine that ;)
