Just applied for a new job in a new district- Update 3: 8/17

btt for update 8/17/17

I was offered the position. I accepted pending where they'll place me on the salary schedule. I think I can get 10-12 years of service credit. I hope. I don't know what the start date will be, but the next board approval dates are August 27 and September 5.

My partner is super bummed. I love love love him, and don't know what I'll do without him. He's my buddy and rock. He has been looking for a job closer to home (90 mins one way commute) since March and hasn't been successful. I really only started looking because I figured he wasn't going to be here this year.

I called to see if the director wants to have lunch tomorrow so I can find out more... I like to be prepared.

I guess that's one way to retain teachers. Here they can deny your request for release by putting a hold on your credential and that prohibits you from taking another certificated position.

I don't think they'll do that with me because it won't directly impact students because I'm out of the classroom. And it's a cost savings because I don't need to be replaced.

Oops. I always forget what date it is during the summer. Still not back in the swing of things, obviously...
