Went to inservice today. The school I work at is really.. unique. It's in a particularly run down area of town. Actually a derelict industrial zone, so it has that crowded emptiness to it. In many ways, the typical inner city school. . .

Except. . .

The school only serves 400 kids, despite being housed in a facility originally built to serve 3 times that number. The main reason its still open is because it has a vocal and proud alumni community, due largely to the fact that the school is over 100 years old and is a genuine part of city history.

I sort of dig it, at least so far. Got my classroom today, and spent an hour just looking for the ley lines and figuring out a decent way to organize. It's significantly longer than it is wide (assuming you take the board to be the primary point of focus), so it's difficult to avoid a shotgun setup. Since I'm a ninja-educator-assassin, I was able to do some pretty fucked up -fu and got a setup that I really, really liked. It would fail every test of feng shui, but it very much soothes the nerves of the mildly-OCD. Tomorrow I get to go to target and buy organizing materials (this fills me with a joy uncomprehendable by most).

(What I *really* need is to find a way to make 11x17 or larger posters from a .jpg file. Seriously, this would make my head spin off my shoulders with glee.)

So, monday I get kids. Somewhere around wendesday, I get a contract. Maybe by the labor day I'll know exactly what class i'll be teaching.

OH! And I'm *already* getting screwed by the faceless machine. I should be on the MA + 45hrs pay scale, and I'm only on the MA one. Boo. I've been assured that when things get sorted out, I'll get paid back to day one. I better, I have *traveling* to do, what with summers off.
belllla:
How fun! My major was Elementary Ed and my sister is an Asst Principal. What age are you going to teach?

I love that you list "DVRs" and "being both helpful and rude" in the things you're into. smile My DVR is like... the best thing to ever happen to me. And I'm a stickler for manners, but I'll be the first to tell someone off in public. blush
