Stories Of A Substitute

It's days like today that are the reason why I have decided to go into teaching.

There was a certain something in the air today at school. Subbing today was very pleasant. I'm at a point now where I have built up relationships with some of the students, and where most of them know me pretty well. Well enough that we can joke with one another, but respectful enough that work gets done. Today was a good day of subbing.

Tonight was the teachers vs. students basketball game. Go Teachers! They won by the way.

I do a lot of observing, of students and teachers and their relationships with each other. A lot of the teachers I had when I was in high school (which was not that long ago) have retired, and a new younger group of educators have come in. Most of the teachers seem to mesh well together. They get along and enjoy being around each other. Which is very important to have in the work place. 

I have to say I'm impressed with the newer generation of teacher's at Mitchell High School.

It is for sure interesting to see all of this unfold. I'm loving it. 

So thank you God, for this awesome day that I had. It was much appreciated.
