The Principal’s Word of the Day is
ABERRATION (AB uh RAY shun) n something not typical; a deviation from the standard
A snowstorm in June in Florida is an aberration; snow doesn’t normally fall in June.
An aberration is an aberrant occurrence. The summer snowstorm was aberrant. Tom’s behavior was aberrant.
