...really just the last 15 minutes of it, but still.
First, the kids went back to their TAs to get mid-quarter progress reports. This requires a lot of paper with individual print outs from each class and a half-piece of paper with letter grades in each class thus far. When I got to my TA teacher's room, she had not started stapling these things together so there was a mad rush with us (mostly me) writing in grades and stapling before the bell rung.
However, then something even more exciting happened which gave us more time to staple. The bank down the street was robbed! As a result, we were all asked to hold students in classrooms, at which point the room I was in became very whiny and rowdy. Ten minutes later, the assistant principal began to periodically release students by bus, then came basketball players/play rehearsal, then walkers, until finally, after about 30 minutes after the regular school hours everyone was safely released. It was actually quite a sight to see how organized the staff all was with no preparation time. Well done.
