A bit later I noticed this paper hanging on the whiteboard, which Sra. told me had been made by Mr. Stibitz:

I love this sign so much, mainly because it's so Mr. Stibitz. For you non-Spanish speakers, se busca means something along the lines of "looked for," but it's more than that. The fancy grammar word, I believe, is "incomplete passive construction," meaning basically that there's nothing explicitly doing the looking, it's just happening. No flashy font, no fancy photos, just what needs to be said. I automatically read this sign in his voice, by the way. If you haven't been, try it now.
And if you know where the fácil button is, please help it find its way home; room 105 misses it.
