Me Next Fall?


Well, it looks like I'll be a lady of leisure next fall. One of my schools decided that I needed to go-- for budget reasons. I don't feel so bad. They also are letting go of 2 full time teachers, a part-time athletic director, and a part-time music teacher. I feel like I worked myself out of a job. Most of my students at that school have come a long way and probably wouldn't need me anymore next year anyway. I feel very badly for the two full time teachers--one, I kind of expected, but the other was a complete shock, as I'm sure it was for her, particularly since she's been there for 7 years and is a great teacher. This is just a little bump in the grand scheme of things, and I know God has a plan for me-- even if it sitting in a rocking chair and knitting.

The picture is kind of cute...:)
Good thing you've worked so hard with those kids that they will be better prepared because of you. Maybe God has something really awesome planned in your life...(more grandchildren?!?!?!) LOL

Funny Sarah... those grandchildren will not be coming from here! Just wanted to clarify that! And I don't see you knitting either Mom. But I'm sure it will work out.

I'm so sorry to hear about your school, it seems like everywhere we turn I've been hearing about layoffs. It sure is a scary time. But I'm glad that your kids are better prepared because of the amazing teacher you've been for them!

I know everything will work out - we always need Special Ed Teachers

I think I'm jealous.
