I just faxed my intent to change my position with the board to a 0.4 FTE. It's set. Although I will have to go in for alternating three part days one week and 2 part days the next, I still think it's a lot. I'm sure I'll get in the swing of it come fall and all will be well. And it's teaching grade 8 band (last the principal and I discussed, anyway). Slowly but surely I'm inching my way back to my beloved senior highs.
And actually, the principal just called to tell me that I'm actually going to be working 0.425 FTE as I have to be paid for my prep time--which I'll take at home. It won't effect how much I'm at the school one iota. Phew. And $75 more a month. Hey, every little bit helps.
Now we just have to see what the good Lord has in store for Dan for the fall. Well, past May, I guess. Waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting.
Patience is NOT my forte.
'tis done

YEAH JODI!! You must feel 1,000lbs lighter having made the decision and comitting to it. I'm happy for you guys that you could come to that conclusion. :)

I do feel relieved, actually. While it isn't the perfect contract in my mind at this point, I have no idea what the fall will hold, and so I have to believe that it all worked out this way for a reason! And to not have to think about it any more is amazing. Phew. : )
Oh man. It's so tough trying to work through all of these things we never wanted, hey? But it always amazes me how, when the time comes, we do what we need to, and we make it work.
Good job on being so brave about it.
