Achievement Unlocked

After months of deliberating and mulling over different scenarios, I made an important decision: I left my job. It was a wonderful place where I learned a lot about how to teach and how to work with students, but I came to the realization that to keep working there would have meant that I would have to remain stagnant. I could not move or live on my own. I would be chained to a company that sent me to various schools that would be happy to use me but not so happy to pay me.

That said, I ended up accepting an offer from another school. Not a company, a school. A place of learning, not business. And I could not be more excited! This will be my first time back in a school first time since the experience that dragged me down. I will be taking all I learned this past year and applying it as I work in one of the most challenging and dynamic school systems in the state.

I'll let you know how that works out. :D
