Hired!

So yesterday was a crazy day- I had to go to the Denver Public Schools job fair just to get a call for an interview at a school I had really wanted to work at. My placement advisor had worked at this school and put a good word in for me so I got a ride from my good friend Emily out to the school, which is in Denver but out by the airport, and I walked in and talked to the principal and got offered the job on the spot. It was so relieving and exciting- the school is Rachel B. Noel Middle School in Denver and I will be a 6-8 grade learning specialist. They work on inclusion model and pull-outs, so I will be helping a number of students in different ways. I am so happy and grateful to Martha, my placement advisor. She really helped me a lot- she was a theatre major in college and she is interested in using drama and art for special ed. and so we connected in that way. 

Today has been closing ceremonies, finishing up business in Denver. I looked at two houses today but I haven't felt too right about anything just yet. It may be a matter of waiting until my other friends get job placements until I make a final decision about a place to live. I am very tired so I am just going to relax and get ready to go to Institute. I fly out tomorrow morning but we are getting picked up at 4:30am. . . eesh. 

Miss everyone at home- this week has FLOWN by. 

I'll keep you posted on how things are in HOT lanta! woop.
