There is something unusual happening at the Oak Street Elementary School. Although there are only 15 teachers at the school, seven of them are pregnant and one of the teachers is pregnant with twins!
When teachers become pregnant, they will often notify the school principal about the pregnancy. The school principal at Oak Street Elementary is Ashley Miller, and she was shocked when the teachers started coming in to let her know.
She said that it was great news and that she was very excited about it. After the third one, however, she said she was in a little shock, and by the time the seventh one came around, she had to remember to congratulate her. In fact her first words were ‘Are you kidding me?’
Two of the teachers that were pregnant have already given birth. They are expecting three girls and one boy out of the teachers who are still pregnant. Other mothers are not aware of the sex of the baby at this time.
Maternity leave would be a problem if these teachers didn’t manage to spread out their pregnancies. They are due to have children between the months of March and October.
As far as the pregnant teachers are concerned, they are thrilled to be able to share this with someone else. They talk about how enjoyable it is to see the other mothers in the hall and ask each other how they feel.
I’m sure that most people don’t have the opportunity to experience this. I think what they would like now is sponsorship from a diaper company.
