Now that the reading/writing testing is over, we're steaming full ahead for 2006-2007. Yes, I'm still trying to figure out how to cram everything I need to teach into the remaing school days and, yet, here we are planning for the coming year. Attending meetings that take me out of the classroom. To discuss what we're going to do with students who didn't seem to learn anything this year. Probably because of all the meetings I had to attend during the school day, while the world's most worthless sub sits reading her novel in my classroom. (Seriously - the building would burn down around this woman and she wouldn't have a clue) What a crock!
On the housing side, I'll probably be homeless next weekend. Apparently, it was extremely hard to verify my employment. My guess is that our techno-phobic district office just couldn't figure out how to use those new fangled phones or fax machines. If I had known a paper needed to be filled out, I would have done it myself, because it's well known that they just can't figure out all that new-fangled stuff. This is the district where direct deposit means putting the check in an envelop, sealing it, licking the stamp to affix to envelop and then placing it carefully in the "outbox" for the postman to pick up on his daily rounds. Hopefully, the process is done before the postman comes 'round on payday. Otherwise, your paycheck is late.
Spring Break can't come fast enough, although I'll probably be camping with the rest of the homeless.
