When Will the Insanity STOP???
Ok, so someone in the Duval County schol boards called me up this week. Well, this is nice, they still have my resume on file. That's about the only thing that is nice about the whole thing.
The person calling was wanting me to interview for a position at this school. Another middle school, rah rah. First off, I don't think it's worth either my time or theirs. Granted, I worked with some older profoundly handicapped students, but sheesh, I don't even think this school HAS a profoundly handicapped program. I don't have any background teaching stuff that middle schoolers are supposed to be learning either; I have been teaching preschoolers, for crying out loud.
I guess I seriously need to take the time off to get to the school board and set my record straight. I WANT TO TEACH LITTLE KIDS. PROFOUNDLY HANDICAPPED LITTLE KIDS. JUST LIKE YOU CAN SEE IF YOU LOOK AT THE DAMN RESUME I HAVE ON FILE WITH YOU.
If I didn't think I'd had enough after having to turn the position down at Lighthouse this summer, now I've REALLY had enough. Profoundly handicapped teaching is NOT a favorite; it takes a certain personality, and alot of people don't want to do it.
HELLO FOLKS. I WANT TO DO IT. I THINK I COULD LIVE TO DO IT, DAY IN AND DAY OUT. HIRE ME, DAMMIT. FOR THE RIGHT POSTION.
Sorry to vent on you, my few(?) but loyal readers. I'm reaching the end of my rope. Of course, the last time I posted that I was reaching the end of my rope, I nearly took a job at a school that wasn't even accredited.
I'm not that far gone yet. I'd rather die a meager preschool teacher. And if you people don't think that's much of a job, I'd like to see YOU in a classroom with 13 two and three year olds...

I'd flat-out ask the Duval woman if teaching middle school for a year would get your foot in the door. It might be a rough sacrifice, but they may want to see you in action before putting you in a handicapped program.
One day at a time, chica. Call when you're not in class, OK?
