I have felt from the moment I stepped on my previous school that I was doing a disservice to kids (like extreme stories of handing out cookies to smart kids!) This district paid well above other district in our state and even gave us a retroactive raise last year! But it finally got to me and I had to leave. <br /><br />So I am taking a huge paycut, I will begin working without a contract, and have not been past the office at my new school! I am terrified. I have switched schools a few times but this time I feel really unprepared because I don't know anything about the school. <br /><br />Good luck. Sometimes new is better!<br /><br /><b><i><a href="http://empoweringlittlelearners.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Empowering Little Learners!</a></i></b>Jennifer @ Simply Kinderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08642153433969327989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740698176124233447.post-80539049657754931662011-07-21T19:48:00.405-07:002011-07-21T19:48:00.405-07:00what charter school do you work for that brings pe...what charter school do you work for that brings people in from all over? most of the charters here are local. have fun, i am sure it will be fine!Mrs. Collins' Kindergartenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03624994721724639461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740698176124233447.post-30277051843037210022011-07-21T19:24:27.763-07:002011-07-21T19:24:27.763-07:00You'll be great!!

Don't just assume you'll remember them all. What is overwhelming for me at these types of things is not necessarily the information they give you--- but all of your ideas that will stem from it!

They make me really excited...then I remember that I don't like the information overload! I always leave feeling really overwhelmed. My best advice is to remember that you will be the best you can be and that not everything has to be perfect on day 1. I've put up tape before and 'Under Construction' signs. Not sure if that helps, but have fun! :)Bonnie Waltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10314411508300125134noreply@blogger.com
