Special Thx
Sitting here, it’s late
It’s been a while since I stayed up past 10 PM. It looks like summer is going to keep us busy. Both of the girls have camp at the end of July. They have rediscovered the joys of the local library and Carowinds is always an adventure. I’m sure both will be part of our weekly routine. This week we have our version of VBS. It’s a little wild, crazy, and a lot messy. The kids have fun and the look on the faces of parents when they pick up their mud/chocolate/water soaked child is priceless. We did include a disclaimer on all info that went out prior to Kid Jam Nights…can’t say they weren’t warned.
I have a workshop this week. Not sure how I feel about that. I’m looking forward to the information and learning how the Promethean software/hardware can help me in the classroom, but if I don’t have a contract next year there is very little benefit to me. My former principal has not responded to messages, but the workshop coordinator said I was welcome to attend and that I should receive credit. I desperately need CEU credit so I am going to go and hope for the best. I have been offended by being a part of the reduction in force (RIF) but maybe it is God’s way of letting me know that I really do want to be back with my gangsta thugs next year. I haven’t always been sure, and I still don’t think I’m certain. If they offered I would accept. I wouldn’t mind working in the same district as my girls though.
It really is late for me and I’m not used to the late night hours yet. Time to call it what it is…night.

Wow, up here,it’s just getting dark at 10 PM… Summer I seem to run on little sleep. May things work out for next school year!
Thanks Sage. I’m starting to adjust to summer hours, but it takes a little time to get in the groove of things.
Is your job security or chances of getting rehired performance-based at all? It wasn’t when I was in school, but maybe it’s changed. That never made sense to me. Teaching is so important. Maybe it’s hard to gauge.
I sure hope it works out for you.
Unfortunately no. I wish. My scores were comparable to the rest of the department and considerably better than the coach they kept.
