My first day at school...
I hope this is not any indication of how my year is going to be.
Yesterday I went to school for some meetings and to do some work in my room.
The new building looks good and almost everyone is very excited about the new year.
The secretary, who is one of the nicest people on earth, was telling us where various forms and whatnot are located. She then says that the mailboxes are much higher than they were at the old middle school. She then says, "Poor Miss Bethie, her box is at the top!"
I was wearing my 3 inch heels yesterday. I still couldn't reach my mailbox. They wanted them in alphabetical order, but is was silly that the teacher who is 4'11" had her box in the highest row, and that the 6'6" teacher had his in the lowest row.
I had no "teacher chair." I had to hunt one down.
The AC isn't working. Actually, the AC works fine, but the computer system it is controlled by is down.
Our phones/intercoms don't work.
I have the high maintenance kids on my caseload. Including a bi-polar who sells her meds.
My dry erase marker set was missing a few markers. (These come at a premium!)
On the bright side...because my small, dark room is an interior room, should we have a tornado, and at this rate, it is certainly possible, my students and I are allowed to just stay there!
Oh, that and one of the hot coaches, who doesn't even know I am alive, is at the new school with us. At least this place has some eye-candy!
