I had just shut the projector off after my final class presentation at Back-to-school night when a parent I had met last week knocked sheepishly on my open door. " I don't know what happened!" she confessed. She gestured to her husband who was blushing a bit. "We were totally lunchin' and we ended up cutting your class!"
I laughed and shrugged. "No worries," I said, "it's not required."
"Is there any work we can make up?" she asked.
"Sure," I said handing them the course description. "Let me hit the highlights." As I went over my talking points one more time with an audience of two, they were open and generous with their questions and feedback.
"That is so cool," the mom said at the end. "I'm so glad she's in this class!"
And I was so glad I stayed a little later than I planned.
