hi friends,
it's been a weird week around school, that's for sure. on monday night at midnight, the board voted to fire about 55 teaching/librarian/assistant jobs for the next school year. still on the table- closing about 9 (now 12) school in addition. originally, i thought it was one or the other and i would have been safe is they had decided to fire teachers (well, not safe, but more safe) however, that is not the case. it's a waiting game, and i dont like playing it! they will bring up more proposals in the march board meeting (seems like an eternity away) and probably won't vote on anything (i'm assuming) until may or june. in the meantime, around february or march i will start looking for other jobs, just in case. problem is...so are 1000 other educators. guess i need to find another trade for the next 10 years. anybody have any hook up in any industry? all i need is a chance...
or maybe this is my sign to go overseas? god help the usa if they are resorting to cutting education before other industries like sports or entertainment. sigh....
:/
