I submitted an online app a little over a week ago for a position posted on a website. The status just says “received.” I’ve Googled, and it looks...
I only pull 30, the rest are monitoring only. I feel like I’m failing my kids big time. They’re not all getting what they need. :( There’s some...
Are you in a small district? Just wondering because I am ATM and was curious to see if it might be a trend.
I completely agree it should not be happening, and it really ticks me off. I’m kind of in a weird spot with the director and my principal. My...
Totally agree, and that is a fear I have. My former principal was a sped teacher under her and said she really takes care of her sped teachers....
Long story short (not really). I’ve been a gen ed teacher for 11 years and switched to sped last year, and I pretty much hate it for a ton of...
I’m in special ed, and it’s not where I’m meant to be. It would be fine if it was a resource room type thing, but it’s not. I have severely...
I’m absolutely miserable in my current position. M-i-s-e-r-a-b-l-e. There were three positions open in my district that I’m qualified to teach and...
When I first started teaching at my current school five years ago, absolutely. DS was one of the main reasons why I wanted a job where I’m at now....
I've got one, too. Maybe we all work at the same school, lol.
Oh, yes. This is exactly what I wanted. :rolleyes: For the record, my OP didn't say a darn thing about opting out. Snarky comments like this...
OMG, nevermind. :| I didn't consider the possible debate that would ensue.
Whoa, whoa, whoa peeps. I didn't intend to start a debate on opting kids out...I didn't even mention it in my post. I do, however, appreciate...
That's not what I'm saying. This kind of goes back to how/why this insults me as a teacher. As a teacher, I know how much is riding on these...
Yes, this is what I mean. I didn't do a very good job wording my previous response.
I should have worded this differently. It's a state thing, not anything to do with a decision by my district. Absences in general count against us...
Nope. Absences count against our district. If I knew it wouldn't count against us, I would.
Since becoming a parent, I have a different view on standardized testing than I did before as just a teacher. I don't think school is going to be...
She and I have been friends for a few years. We hang out during the summer, our husbands know each other, we have a few mutual friends, and we...
Push It, Salt-n-Pepa! :haha: I just saw the Geico commercial.
