Faculty relations...!??!?!?

By now, I've come to realize that most of the faculty in my district are involved with each other...either physically or romantically..or both!

Most of these people, unfortunately, are married to people who do not work here.

This disheartens me. I found this out when I was approached by a colleague who wanted to pursue a relationship with me on the side (I am engaged and he is married with three children).

I was appalled! He tried to convince me that it was okay because everyone else was doing it.

THE PEER PRESSURE RED LIGHT WENT OFF IN THE BACK OF MY MIND! (Thank you d.a.r.e. program of my childhood).

I am looking forward to getting married to my love of the past 8 years. Could no one else in this building keep their pants on? Is my relationship doomed?

Just because we work in a high school doesn't mean we need to act like we still are in it!

Only 5 more days until I am transferred to elementary.

Thoughts?

New job

I haven't posted in forever! This posting hiatus began right when our school musical started and since then I haven't had a breath of fresh air.

We have one week left.

Next year I will no longer be teaching here at the high school. The economy has hit every district in the area hard. I'm just lucky to have a job next year. I will be traveling at 2 elementary schools.

I'm looking forward to not having to deal with difficult high schoolers anymore.

I am not looking forward to adjusting to 2 new schools after finally adjusting to this one. I'm just going through the motions.

I'm exhausted.

Congrats to anyone that is finally done with their school year.
