The first week with teachers was great! I have meet so many wonderful new people.
The meetings, professional developments, schedule changes, building maintenance, learning new procedures, tweaking old procedures, and Meet The Teacher required being at work early and getting home late, but I can say it has all been worth it. I have an amazing principal and am blessed that she is allowing me to spread my wings and lead beside her.
What have I learned this week?
I realized I naturally treat people like they are volunteers. It is actually a good thing. I know teachers are paid to do their job, however, they must feel appreciated and know their work has purpose, otherwise, they might check out mentally and not reach their potential. They have the ability to change the world by touching the lives of one child.
I am more crazy about being organized than I thought. I have always wished I was a little more of a neat freak and didn't believe clutter bothered me. I was wrong. Actually I have discovered I do have strong feelings about where things belong. I believe the older I get the more it matters. (Don't get me wrong, I still hate to clean! lol)
The only way I can explain how things have fallen together is divine design. I have no doubt this is where I am suppose to be. I have experienced God's favor in timing most of all. Being in the right place at the right time to get the phone call for an interview when we were in an area with NO cell service for 2 days. Having the district tech guy walk in just in time to solve the computer issue for an important meeting. The list goes on and on.
I am stretching and it feels good.
My Today,
Christy
