Soooo I spent most of this summer attending trainings, getting ideas from Pinterest, and purchasing all of the goodies I thought I'd need for my 3rd grade classroom THEN the Instructional Coordinator position from my school became available. I have to say that I was VERY conflicted as to whether or not I should put my name in the hat. I've already met with my 3rd grade team a number of times this summer and they have TRULY impressed me with their excitement & expertise! We have so many great ideas stewing that I couldn't see myself doing a 180 and going back into administration. I sat down with my entire family and we had a heart-to-heart. Inevitably my goal is to be the very best I can be in whatever position I am in. I want to make a positive difference in my community with parents, students, and staff. I also know that I THRIVE on challenging myself.
After a lot of consideration, I decided to throw my name into the hat. I knew that if I didn't, I would always wonder "what if" had I not taken the chance and put myself out there. Well, I interviewed and got the job!!!! I am incredibly excited about this new journey AND best of all...I still get to plan with my 3rd grade team!!! YEAH! Now I just have to figure out what to do with all of the stuff I have in my garage!
With all of this in mind, I can't wait to share all of the wonderful lessons, ideas, & organization in my new position as Instructional Coordinator!
