Anyhow, things have been crazy coming up on the end of the school year. A lot has been going on. I'm trying to nail down a full time position for next school year... and I'm hoping I'll find success in doing so after Saturday. Unfortunately, due to budget cuts in our district, there are people under contract already that have to be shifted around the district into openings.... this complicates things for me. But they are opening a new elementary school in the district, so that's still 30 openings (potentially more) across the district just at that level. There's an invite only job fair on Saturday that I'm going to and I'm hoping I can land a position... but this all depends on whether or not district allows principals to start hiring again! :( Wish me luck!
In other news, there are only 5.5 days of school left (with the kids, at least) and I'm psyched about that! I'm READY for summer break! And what better way to start it than to have received an "exceeds expectations" work evaluation?!?! This will GREATLY help me in my job search, because I can add that evaluation to my portfolio and it will only help me to have received such a great eval from one of the top schools... which is EXEMPLARY in the testing arena! WOOHOO! I'm still crossing my fingers to stay on my campus next year, but like I said... ya just never know given the current situation in the district. If all else fails, my position should still be there next year... so I could at least do that and have some sort of income... but I'm SINCERELY hoping to get a full time position for next school year! And the sooner I find out the BETTER!!! I'm a planner... so I will TOTALLY start planning some lessons over the summer if I know where/what I'm teaching ;)
Anyhow... off I go... It's about bedtime for me... and I'm ready to hit the hay!
