If you are curious about where I will be teaching....Here is the websiteGrant Public Schools
I will be at the high school so you might have to journey a little further. :)

I think I may have to rename this blogger and call it "A First Year Teacher's Journal of Insanity". Yesterday I started pulling together my classroom. Thankfully someone ordered me all the school supplies that I would need. So I unpacked staplers, rulers, rubberbands, paperclips (in four different sizes and two different styles), pencils, and boxes and boxes and boxes of chalk. I also met my first student. Typical freshman looking for her classes so she doesn't walk into the wrong one on the first day of school. :) Now I just need plants for my classroom. I want my classroom to look alive, not a sterile flourescent concrete walled institution. Wel, I think that I am officially excited to be a teacher.
