Happiness!!!

So... in other news... I GOT THE JOB!!!

Most of you who read my blog already know this, but I needed to make it official. Next year, I will be working at the same school where I am currently interning, Boston Arts Academy. I am pumped to continue teaching math at an urban public arts high school! It's everything I wanted and more all rolled up in one. I'm hoping to work on getting my secondary certification in special education, so I can be more useful to my math students who need that special help. I'm also hoping to start a musical theater club, so I can get more involved with students with similar interests. And I'm also just hoping to get back on my feet with my own arts interests, whether that means taking more dance classes, finding a new voice teacher, or auditioning for shows again! I'm so happy and excited about what the future holds. I love this school, this administration, this faculty, these students, and I cannot wait to start collaborating on new curricula. I hope to push myself even more next year to break the mold and really do more experimental, exploratory things in my classroom. Hopefully, I feel more comfortable and less nervous than I did this past year, and I know that I have the rest of the math team on my side. :)

Yay! Excuse me while I go squeal a little more...
