As I begin to approach week 4 I have some thoughts rolling around in my head. My FPF Emily hit it on the head when she tried to tell me I don’t have to put extra pressure on myself by making sure I get straight A’s. Things are ramping up between my personal life, work life, which is working at school and my school life, the classes I’m taking. A super shout out to all of you that do not work in a school but take time from your regular jobs to do your clinical work. I can’t imagine not working at a school and trying to do all this. The teachers I work with are all so supportive and encouraging of me and I continue to be pulled out of my regular classroom to sub for teachers when they are out, which gives me a ridiculous amount of experience in all grade levels.
I couldn’t be happier with the school I work at. I not only love the students and the community but the entire staff at the school as well. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a tough school with lots of behavior problems but the staff is such that they are 100% committed to the school as am I am we want nothing but the best for our students. It’s so gratifying to see students leave the school and become great citizens and great additions to the community. Can’t wait to see what the future of my current first grade class will be.
Stay tuned…..
