On my way to getting a J.O.B!

Yesterday I went in to have an interview with the Director of Personnel for a substitute position. So I thought. Right when I sat down she started telling me about all of these jobs that were available, and since I have a degree I could apply for them. So I did just that. I went home and applied for multiple teaching assistant positions

. Now I know that sounds exciting and all BUT the positions available are for the more challenging classes. For example ISS which is D.M.C. (where you go when you get into trouble), BAC which is a class full of kids that have behavioral issues, a life skills class and the one I am hoping for is a Pre-k class! On my way out the door this morning to go observe one of the classes I got a call to come in and interview. I soon found out that I was interviewing for the Junior High ISS class. The interview went quite well and then they had me go observe the class. I walked into the room and saw all of the kids each have their own desk with a cubbie. These kids are put into this class for bringing a weapon to school, having drugs on them, violence or sexual harassment. They pretty much have to do worksheet after worksheet all day long and cannot talk. It was very interesting being in the class. I had one girl tell me "miss that boy keep talking about your butt" well....that's lovely. Gross. I definitely think I could handle the class even though I think the day will go by very slow. But the day didn't end there...once I left the Junior High school I had a message from the director at the early childhood center. I called her back and she asked if I could come in this afternoon to have an interview for the Pre-k position. Let's just say I think I NAILED the interview! I am most certainly keeping my fingers crossed! And tomorrow I am meeting with the Pre-k teacher that I would potentially be working with! So lets all hope and pray that I get this job because that would mean it would be full-time with benefits and I would get paid throughout the summer! YAY!

Oh yea that is going to me! :)
