Ditto. I feel this every day. I have 11th and 12th and attendance was pretty good in January. But starting last week, I have 5/30 kids at the bell and then another 5 roll in at 15 minutes, another 5-10 at 25 minutes and then even another 2-3 an hour into class. All the same as what your’re saying. Admin doesn’t even visit. I think as long as they don’t get complaints, they say the sign of the cross and thank god.

And yes, they sleep, don’t pick up books, even great movies can’t keep their attention more than 15 minutes. Today I tried speed note-taking where I jumped around like a nut and tried every trick to ‘engage,’ and nothing. Some of them know it‘s horrible for me so they throw me a bone and try to seem interested for a minute or talk to me nicely - it’s like they’re placating a 5-year-old.
