New School
Friday July 19, 2013
So this is the story of the year: I’ve been surplussed this
year from my school and transferred to another school within the area. It’s a
much smaller school that goes from k-8. I’m teaching a 7/8 split, core, which
unfortunately means I’ll be teaching every subject there is except for French;
however, I’m happy for the change of environment. Plus, who could hate a class
size of 16 and a building that has central a/c? Makes it hard to miss my old
school which did NOT have central a/c.
The school has 2 floors, a baseball diamond and just under
200 students which means there is a small teaching staff. In fact, I’m the only
7/8 teacher in that school. Because I have to teach all the subjects, my class
is equipped with a bit of everything; science supplies, sink, and a smartboard.
The stock room/photocopying room is right next to my classroom which is very
convenient. I’ve got 2 large windows and a carpet but it’s too dirty to have
the kids sit on it for book readings or discussions. I think I’ll buy floor mats
to cover it up. There’s lots of bulletin and chalkboard space and lots of
cabinet storage space for all my supplies.
Overall, it’s a great looking and functional room.
