A week ago Friday was our last day of school. Monday was a work day, and then we had Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I spent the majority of the time packing up my bedroom to move into my new apartment. It's not a lot of stuff, but when you actually have to carry all of it up 4 flights of stairs, it's a lot of trips! A friend of mine told me about women who will come to you to give pedicures, so Wednesday I got a $6 pedicure while I was waiting for her to finish up her work-- Gotta love that!!
Today (Friday) parent's pick up report cards, and can conference with the teacher if needed. It is still up in the air exactly which grades I'll be doing next year-- 5th grade will be considered Middle School, so the 4th grader's I had will most likely be with the MS/HS SST Teacher-- which makes me a bit sad, b/c I really enjoyed working with them. The other Elem SST teacher is going to be teaching Elem Spanish, so they're going to hire another SST teacher to split the Elementary caseload with me. I've learned to be very flexible, so I guess I will just wait and see what is decided when I come back in the fall! :-) Also, there are also going to be a new 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade teacher (though 4th grade is b/c there will be 3 sections of 4th grade instead of the 2 sections this year), so I will be working with new/different teacher's as well. There is also going to be a new elementary classroom building, so they are moving classroom's around, but thankfully I don't have to move, and can stay in the same spot. :-)
I have to wait until tomorrow to get the keys to my new apartment, and then I can start moving my stuff. It's about 5-6 blocks away, so I will be making some trips back and forth :-D Teacher's can leave tomorrow, but b/c of me moving, I had to wait-- and Sunday flights were very expensive, so I'm leaving Monday. My roommate Sarah is leaving Tuesday --she is moving also, b/c the school didn't want to use the apartment building any more--and the school is moving her stuff on Monday (She's taking all the furniture and kitchen stuff, so she has a lot more to move...). So at least there will be someone else around.
I fly out at 8:25 a.m. Monday, and am getting picked up by the bus at 5:55. This time I fly from Santiago to Miami, Dallas, Omaha, getting in at about 8:45 P.M. I am so excited to be go home for the summer!! I don't have my return ticket yet, but I think it's going to be Tuesday August 2nd. Teacher's have to be back August 6th, and we start inservices August 8th. I'll have to do some unpacking and figuring things out for my new apt, so it will be nice to have a few days to do that.
