Today, Campbell went for his second day of CLUE (gifted) class at Downtown Elementary.  We were really impressed with the CLUE teacher there, Latrice Leggs, during Campbell’s testing.  We haven’t been able to work it out to go this spring, but Campbell’s spring break was the week before the spring break for Shelby County Schools.  So, he got to go on Tuesday and Thursday this week. Ms. Leggs was so funny about Campbell. She said on Tuesday that he gave her most verbal student a run for her money.  She said he acclimated well.  And, he wore his police outfit to school.  When the morning announcements came over the loudspeaker, he told everyone to be quiet because that was his dispatcher calling with his job.  He also thought her name was hilarious, so he started calling her Ms. Sunglasses.  Thankfully, she thought this was really cute and funny. She said she wanted to have him back any time he could come.

After that, Campbell and Dad went to the fire station.  They had a big time.  Good thing too, because it’s probably the last time we’re going to get to do something like this for a while.  The coronavirus pandemic has been getting worse, and now dad’s gotten word that his classes will be online for the next few weeks.  We’ll have to stay away from other people and do our best to stay away from germs.  We also got word this morning that Shelby County Schools will be closed tomorrow for at least three weeks.  And, then once that announcement was made, the University of Memphis went online for the rest of the semester.  Staff are still supposed to come, but we’ll see how long that lasts.
