*Our school district gave all employees a 1.5% pay raise for this school year. Not a ton, but better than no raise at all!
*Another 6th grade math teacher was hired and apparently she is young, blonde and slightly new to teaching! Yay! A potential buddy for next year! :)
*Our school replaced it's contract with Coca-Cola to one with Dr. Pepper! YES! Diet Dr. Pepper in the vending machines now! Yippee!
*I will have the same schedule as last year: teach 1st-5th period with 6th and 7th off! I love getting all of my teaching over with and having the rest of the day to relax/plan for the next day!
*My room is sparkling clean and ready for some serious decorating! :)
Umm think there were a few other things but those were my main moments of joy today!
Here's hoping that this will be an AWESOME school year! :)
Congrats on the raise! Any little bit helps!! Good luck with the upcoming school year!
ReplyDeleteWhat great things to be happy about! I'd love to have your schedule too :)
ReplyDeleteHow fun! You should post a pic of your sure-to-be darling classroom. If that's not against the rules! :o)
ReplyDeleteI never knew you were a teacher- me too! I teach high school English, years 9 & 10. LOVE it! Hope you had a fun summer xx
ReplyDeleteSounds exciting-- happy back-to-schooling in!! I spent all day working on my boards... exhausting but exciting!
ReplyDeleteSounds like everything is going great!! I have to start getting in there and cleaning too. Eww....I'm figuring out what my deal will be next year. Do you think it'll be super hard for me to get a job next year in TX? I was thinking about going to grad school if it didn't look good.
ReplyDeleteWhat school district do you teach in again?! Exciting things!!
ReplyDeleteWhen do you start? How's your classroom looking?
