Back to school

It would be an understatement to say that it was tough to start back to school. I forget how much I enjoy not having to be there and how hard it is to get back into the swing of things. I worked many hours through the summer trying to sort through things in my portable. I took over the portable from a teacher who retired and left all of her stuff.

I am teaching at Vae View again this year. I am teaching 5th grade. It will be nice to be in just one grade instead of in two. I currently have 24 kids in my class. That is a lot less than most classes in other schools. I am not complaining!

My school is going through a remediation process this year. I am not sure all that this process will require but I am excited for the process and for the positive outcome it is sure to have on our school.
