I Really Want This Job!

Today, I went for my job interview as a Inner City School Worker Liason - whew! Long title!

In a nutshell, it's working at a small Learning Center - total 150 students from grades 10-12. It's a team effort working with other teachers, staff members,councellors and the principal with high risk youth.

Now I must be a bit zany as I have obtained a position at an Elementary School only four blocks from my home for the start of next school year in Sept. This job is only part time and 1/2 hr from my home. Means loss of 1/2 my income but since I'd only be working 3 days a week I can either sub the rest of the 2 days or teach ESL to make up the income.

I mentioned on another post it's a brand new classification that our school district started this year. Unlike other postings this doesn't necessarily go to the person with the most seniority but rather someone who would be committed to working with these type of student. While I love kids of all ages I find I'm always happiest working with challenging teens - this is where my heart lies.

The principal informed me she has now narrowed it down to myself and another person who has an interview Monday. She will then make her selection. While I was debating back and forth about my choice earlier - I knew the moment I stepped into that place...I wanted to work there. Please send positive vibes my way that I will get the phone call giving me good news on Monday. It's going to seem like a very long weekend and wait for me.

I can't believe that there would be a lot of competition to work with teens-- let alone challenging ones! You're a brave soul, Marianne. Good luck!

I realize not a lot of people like working with challenging teens, but as I mentioned it's always been my true passion. Seven people did apply, two of us were narrowed down and I KNOW your good thoughts had something with my being chosen.

Whee I so happy!!! I might grumble in the winter time during the long drives but just ignore me then. :D
