Wait...What?

Wait...What?

This week was what they like to call "pre-planning". Kind of a funny name since I did not do any pre-planning! I found out real quick that there is so much that has to be done and so little time to do it. It has been  overwhelming going from one meeting to the next, then on top of that going to professional development training too. Did I mention that while all this is happening I had to get lesson plans, sub plans, focus calenders, and bell ringers ready! By Friday :)

Thank God for the school I am at! Everyone...and I mean Everyone that I have talked to or asked for help has gone out of their way to make me feel comfortable! The principal rocks, the teachers are beyond amazing, and the janitor has helped me get my stuff together. Since I am working with such great people it helps all the stress seem manageable.

BUT...what really helped all this hard work seem worth it, was tonight. Open House. I had the chance to meet almost all of my students and their parents. As soon as I saw them walking through those halls, all terrified and confused just like I have felt, I knew I was in the right place! I am so looking forward to getting to know them and helping shape their lives.

Here is to an amazing, stressful, totally worth it year!
