School spirit

This has been a fantastic year at school!  I am loving my new grade level and loving my new principal.  I didn't even no how bad it was until someone came in that knows how to run a school the way it should be done.  I can't believe for 10 years I experienced lies, manipulation, and down right sick behavior.  I can't believe that over a year ago I was looking for jobs at state farm because I was so miserable.  Well I feel like KIMMY got her grove back.  Yes my job is hard and exhausting but I enjoy what I do and don't feel sick to my stomach like I had been punched all day.  It's so refreshing to have my passion for teaching back.

So this astronaut is my new boss, whom I love!!  She is easy to talk to, she has great communication skills, she has high expectations and runs a tight ship, but is incredibly supportive and kind.

And my intermediate Hallway friends.  Love them all!!
And the whole staff.  We are a tight group who love and appreciate each other.  What a great and happy place to work.
So our principal decided that we needed to be very prepared for the parcc test and take it very seriously.   So we did.  We got the student's all PUMPED up for PARCC.  The primary hallway blew it out of the water though.  There decorated the hallway with every students name on a star, had all kinds of posters about reaching for the stars, or you are out of this world covering the walls.  They even put all of our teacher's faces on the rocket.  Each planet was planet ________ (the teacher's name).  It was so cool.  Then the intermediate teachers did a skit (that I wrote) and the did a dance to Up Town Funk You Up.  It was pretty good.  Really silly, but the students loved it.
