Wednesday, April 6

6:13 a.m. - Umpiring in the cold and wind and sprinkles was again not fun in Orion last night.  I guess it was still a paycheck.  I did seem to add to my cold symptoms, though.  I'm just not feeling good.  Yesterday the school day went fine...Ms. Daly had good information for the students considering a 4-year public university path after high school. 

Today will be a long day.  First and foremost is the final presenter in the training path series.  This is a really good path for many of our students, but I have a new presenter, so there is always some uncertainty associated with a "newbie".  Apprenticeships are a great avenue for some students, but this path is hard for many other students to even engage with.  We'll see how it goes.

Then after school, the RTA negotiating team has another meeting with CUSD 300 regarding the new collective bargaining agreement.  My hope is that we will have meaningful progress tonight.  Again, we'll see how it goes.  The weather is going to continue to suck, so I'll be losing a paycheck, but I won't be on a cold, damp, windy softball diamond.
