but unfortunately for me, I've only worked a little over one day. I'm so frustrated at this point. Last week I got a call from the lady who schedules all the substitute teachers at the school where I work and she was asking if I had received my "sub card" for this year. I had realized the day before (while teaching) that I hadn't received it yet. I didn't think much of it and had planned to go to the school board office within the next couple of days. Well, she continues to let me know that since I had returned a form the county sent out this summer (I haven't seen it), they had deleted my whole substitute file and I would have to start ALL over again!? So, I take my Professional Teaching Certificate along with all of my substitute paperwork from the past school year and really was hoping it would be an easy fix. Well, I WAS WRONG!! They told me that I would have to go through the training (ridiculous) and then have my fingerprinting and background check again. Also, they haven't scheduled the next substitute training class and it could be between 4 and 6 weeks. Of course DJ's frustrated, but I am SO FRUSTRATED! I love the kids and I love everyone I work with at the school. I immediately emailed the principal in hopes that he may be able to contact someone and get something worked out for me. Well, as of today, I haven't heard back from him (but I'm getting ready to email him and check up). I may go back into the school board office either today or Monday and see if there's anything new. I think I also have the contact info for a man who works in the HR department, so I may drop him a note too. I guess it would hurt, right?
So, I'll keep you posted on this whole process and hopefully I'll be back in the classroom sooner than later!
Oh, by the way....we have our next trip coming up. We're heading to Baton Rouge for the WVU game, New Orleans for the Saints game and then heading out to Vegas for DJ's work conference!!
