Best Day!

Teaching

Some of you know that it has been kinda iffy if I can stay at my school next year because of becoming Title I. Well, I met with the ARL head hancho today and we had this conversation:

J: "I do like my school. They don't know if I can stay there next year though because I am an ARL."
HH: "What? Who said that? That is wrong, you are a highly qualified teacher."
(I was informed by my Principal a couple weeks I am not highly qualified...not the best thing to hear)
J: "My principal and Kyle Hansen from the District."
HH: "Kyle Hansen, he is brand new, I know him. I will call him right now. There is NO reason you can't stay at your school. You are highly qualified at the federal and state level."

Whoooo hoooooo!!! I get to stay at my school!!!!


Contacts

I got my contacts today as well. I can't even feel the right one. The left is killing me. My eye hasn't stopped watering. We shall see how it goes tomorrow. But yippeeeeee! Good day! Sorry no pictures!

CONGRATS on TWO BIG ACCOMPLISHMENTS!! And I love love love your blog P.S. Also, is the left contact in backwards? Sometimes I do that or I have to constantly take it out and rewash it until it feels just right. I hope it feels better soon!
