IT FEELS GOOD....IT FEEEEELS GOOOOD

I can't sleep. This time it is because my mind can't stop working but in a brilliant way...

I GOT A JOB...starting the 2nd week of August I will be Horace Mann Middle Schools Special Education Teacher for Social Studies!!!

I can't believe it still. I just went in for the interview but not really wanting the job, I felt it was tooo far and I still have to finish my coursework at CSULA and the drive would not be worth it. BUT I wanted the interview experience....

Then, I fell in love with these people and what they could offer me to be an effective teacher....

My mind was and is just flooded with ideas for my kids. I got my dream job. I did, check this out:

1. It's a special education classroom (SDC)
2. It's a middle school (6-8)
3. It's an inner city school (Inglehood, I mean Inglewood)
3. It's social studies (yessss)
and a bounce I could only hope for
4. It has a huge amount of resources...meaning I will have enough text books, computers, tools, anything I need to create an amazing environment for teaching...I'm gonna cry!!

This is an amazing feeling. I so have paid my dues to get this. AND this is an amazing school! I mean the staff are all on the same page for once. They are terribly supportive of each other and of me as a new teacher and...and...words cannot explain how this will be worth the drive. I know it will. This next year will be tough and trying but I heed the call.

I got in to sign all the paper work and contract stuff but I'm on my way!!!

SUUUUUUUUUPAH STAHHHHHH!!!!
