School's out for Summer!-AMA-Update

I said I would.

But a few classroom rules.
1. The answer to the obligatory question. No
2. There are no stupid questions-just stupid people that ask questions.
3. Teacher has the right to suspend you.
4. Teacher can take regular quarter and holiday breaks.

Busy week of babysitting.

I commute to my job, which is the only downside, but considering the lack of discipline issues and good admin in place, it's well worth it to me.
I hope they continue to be good years. Don't listen to us old timers complain. There are sore spots with almost every job. Teaching is a rewarding profession that can allow you to fund a comfortable life.

Congrats on making it to the end and enjoy your summer!

I also, have a 1000 grant for a new weather station at my current school which is much easier to work at.

My applications have not had a response. Not sure if it is licensure, being a male, being expensive or being white. I do have a lot of strikes against me in a public school. Which is amazing since everyone is so damn desperate for teachers.

Do I teach in a subject I hate and a place I like or teach a subject I like and a place that could kill me. The great mental debate.

Not looking for answers, just venting my quandary.

My old school has an opening. My PTSD and anxiety could not do it, and my wife said "HELL NO" Think Steely Dan....never going back to my old school.
I'd stay put. Environment > subject matter, if you are truly happy in the current culture.
