Things are always changing. Go with the flow!

Well Dallas informed us that they would be taking measures to lower the debt that they and Gov. Perry caused by their mismanagement of funds. Not their words. They call it Leveling! They take from one school and send them to another school. If there is a position.

Yet Perry wants to ruin the whole country. I hope the people are not that stupid to vote for him. I sure won't. I made that mistake once which helped get him in office. I won't make that mistake twice. I'm not a republican anyway.

Back on track, the dreaded news came today and we lost 4 teachers, one was on leave and the other three were in tears along with many of the staff members. The boss lady was good enough to call some of her friends to see if they had some openings and they went for interviews today so probably have the positions if the District doesn't screw it around someway as usual.

The good news is that I still have a job. The bad news is that no more of the fun thing I was doing, I now will be heading back to the classroom to take the place of one of those teachers. I will be teaching Math and Science in the 3rd grade.

It will be interesting when the parents and kids find out that I am still a teacher and back in the classroom. For the last couple of years they have asked me, "You're not a teacher anymore?" I will always be a teacher, I just may not be in the classroom all of the time. We will see what this year holds and what next year may hold with the District still having a $30 million shortfall.
