Ok so this blog is way overdue.
Almost two weeks I shaved my head. Basically down to a #1, not completely balled. It was pretty short.
I did it as a promise to the sophomore class. I am a sophomore English teacher at my school and represent their class. First, I told them I would do it if my class achieved growth on one of our regular reading comprehension quarterly learnia tests. Then I told them that if our class won the pennies for patients charity fund drive I would do it.
They ended up doing both. We were the only class to raise the full goal ($300). After week 1 we were getting slaughtered (down something like $50-12), but after I made my promise the floodgates of change poured in. I had sophomores from all over donating their change.
The actual shaving was a huge event. We did it in my room. Several students from all the classes came in to watch me go bald. In the end, the whole affair was pretty fun and brought some excitement to the school so I’m glad that I did it. And it’s already growing back to a respectable length.
Anyways, here are some of the pictures.
