School's Out Forever!


Sing along....


School's out for summer
School's out forever
School's been blown to pieces
.....
Out for summer
Out till fall
We might not go back at all




I've been singing this all week!

For me, all of the above are true (except that school has not been blown to pieces).

School is out! For those of you that don't know, I am not returning to the classroom next year. In my sister's words, 'I'm retiring.' Unlike many of my teaching friends, this is by choice and not by pink slip.

This year was miserable in many ways. I won't go into the details, but I decided it was time to quit. I have found another job. I will be teaching/tutoring at a Sylvan Learning Center here in Montgomery. I have already started tutoring, and I really enjoy it so far. I just have to brush up on my Algebra II and Trigonometry skills. I will also be working there this summer. But don't worry, I'll get off by 12:30. This still allows plenty of afternoon pool time.

Hopefully I will return to the classroom sometime in the future. For now I'm off to celebrate with some type of drinky-drink.

Happy Summer!

  1. Have a grand time! I still hope you and Nick will come see me sometime. I'm going to a place in Napa (for a retreat) in a few weeks so I'll check out the nearby vineyards for future reference when you all do get out.
