counting down the days...

Postby teach » May 7th, 2008, 1:32 pm

My last day at school is May 23rd and I am ready for this year to be over!

My school has been through the ringer this year and has been negatively put in the spotlight for minor incidents and major incidents. The news station is constantly saying something about my school and it has just been a tough year. We have even sold T-shirts that say "I survived Hixson High 2007-2008" and I bought one!

Anyway, this year is coming to a close and I am ready for it!

Summer here we come!

Anybody else feel like me?

Yes! We are on summer break finally, and I am so ready for it.

Woo hoo! I am thrilled too.. :)

I have only 7 days left, only 4 with the children present...

Today I started breaking down the room! It felt good. :)



(I'm taking 5 classes this summer, but that will still seem like a break..!)

Yeah I was gonna say, in high school back in Oregon, getting out one week before Youth Camps started last week of June was the norm. I remember Vancouver school district didn't get out until the mid-week of Camp for a couple years. We also didn't start back up until second week of September.

We get out May 23rd as well. As much as I enjoy having the students and teachers gone so I can actually get some work done, I hate getting out so early and starting back so early. Due to reports being due to the state at the end of June, I can't take my vacation then so I have to take it in July. We don't get our new budget until July so by the time I take my 2 weeks off (and the other 3 guys take their vacations) July is almost over and there's no time to do anything before school starts back at the beginning of August.

glad you all are getting a break I commend all of you that are teachers, it is one of the most important jobs one could have. I also feel that should be a very high paying job but that is another thread :wink:

Have fun!!!!!!!!

The students last day is June 5th, but we, (the students and staff), spend that day at the beach! :D

Teachers last day is a week later on June 13th.

Our graduation is May 17th! I have only one more session with my students. I will be off for most of the summer!

It looks like I might have as many as 100 students next year. We are so blessed! God is good.

My mom and brother are counting down the days as well. Every day mom comes home, the first words out of her mouth are, "Well, only (insert number) days left."

The sad thing is, once it is over, we will probably miss it...(kind of)!
