3rd Grade!!!

I just got a phone call from the principal in the school district out in the Toolies.

As long as the state finishes up my certificate soon, I have a 3rd grade position for the fall. :)

It is a tiny district with one elementary school, one middle and one high school. With a lot of work to be done to help the kids reach their potential, but everyone seemed really nice and hard working when I was out there for my interview.

I think its funny that some of the people at Lowes were making faces at the drive (its about 25 miles from the house), but getting a job in Macon or in Perry would be the same distance, with more traffic. Plus when our lease is up we could look at renting more that direction, and still be in the catchment area for the high school here.

Big load off my mind. Now to stay on top of the state board people for my certificate.


PS more pictures from today, Natalie's birthday, and the cats are here
