Kathy:

I can really sympathize with you.  This happened to our school 4 years
ago.  We are in a small town so it was easy to relocate.  I was in the
meeting room of the Town Library, the grade 3's were upstairs of the
hockey arena, two grade 1 classes and 2 grade 2 classes were in the Cub
and Scout Hall and the Division brought in 2 portables for the other grade
1 and 2 classes plus the office.  My shelves and books were all moved over
to the town library.  Everybody was within walking distance from one
another and I can honestly say we had a very good year.  Thankfully we
also didn't have a very cold winter, with little snow.  Our school was
gutted and also a new wing built so it was worth it.  The kids had a great
time.  So hang in there, this could a good learning experience.  (Ha!  Ha!)
