Haha. None of my teachers seem like the type to have Facebook. One of my teachers I had last year does have a Myspace but he won't add any of his students until they graduate high school.

And yes a lot of teachers in the house! we all must have wanted summers off in order to spend them at the park huh?

A definite perk.

So we are up to 6-7 teachers here?  Wow.  That is a pretty neat deal.

Well I am a Detention Deputy at a County Jail.  I would rather deal with Inmates then to deal with parents of children like you all have to.  My brother who is a teacher told me the parents are the worst part of the job.

     I hope that I am not too late. . . I'm a teacher also.  I joined facebook about 3 months ago and my students quickly found me.  I accepted one of my favorite students as a "friend" and quickly found that I was linked to information that as a teacher I should not have.  I canceled her as a friend and went to school and put a sign on my white board telling all students that I would not be friends with any active students.  I told them not to take it personally, but that it was an across the board standard. My students now joke that they can't wait to graduate and become my "friend."   
     On the other hand, I use email to send documents to my students all the time.  My students rarely write social things to me because they perceive that email is boring and official.  I think that I have found the balance of technological interaction yet keep a professional distance.

Hello to all, yes, I'm a "newbie", here, so I have no intentions on offending anyone, as I learn the "ropes".  I'm on fb, too, and have hundreds of pics of sdc & cc, as well.  I had joined "Save Celebration City" on fb, last year, and some how became the "creator".  If any of you are interested in joining the group, please do!  It's great to share photos & information.  Thanks
