Let's Recap

Here is a quick run down of what has happened since I first moved to NC almost three months ago:

• I interviewed for a teaching position at one middle school.

• Not even a week later I had a second interview.

• I was offered the the second position exactly one hour after my interview.

• I am now currently employed with Lincoln County School District.

• I received a rejection letter in the mail from the first interview (it was for the best!)

• I attended two days of new teacher orientation.

• I met a lot of amazing educators.

• I have been preparing my classroom for a week now (it looks amazing, though I am not sure the students and parents are in love with my Pittsburgh Steelers Theme... I'm not in PA anymore that's for sure!)

• I have experienced numerous professional development days.

• Today we held open house for the students and now I am even more excited for school to start Monday!

All in all, it has been a whirl wind of an experience.  I really cannot believe that summer is over and school is starting in 3 days.  I just might be the only person in the who is happy about that...


Thought of the day:  A little perspective and a positive attitude can make a world of difference!
