I'm going to a training tomorrow and I am pumped! It's a good chance to break my normal routine and maybe learn a new trick or two. I fully expect much of it will be stuff I already know, but this is my first time out of my classroom by choice this year (The previous absences were strep throat fueled, and I would have much rather been healthy and in class).
Also, I think I'm having something of a "I've been at one job for a long time" crisis. I love my school, but the wanderlust has been kicking in. I'm already thinking about what to do next year. I've already applied for the an interview pool for a more technical position within the county. If I don't hear anything back by March, I'll probably put forward my interest for a interviewing at other schools for a transfer. Maybe there will be a good opportunity in 'the trenches' of alternative schools or a nearby elementary school. If nothing presents itself, I wouldn't be opposed to a fifth year at my current position (since it's great to have a job and all).
I want to work at all three levels (elementary, middle, and high) at some point. Normally, I get somewhere, settle in, and get content quickly. I'm not really used to the restlessness. Hopefully, an opportunity will arise, or I'll just work through it.
