Thursday, August 22

6:34 a.m. - Another night was spent at the camper, and I slept well, so I'm running a little late again.  Shawn and Mary and the Harrison's (minus Darrin) were at the camper last night too (along with Amber), so it was supper and campfire and conversation.  Plus, the kids rode around the campground on bikes and played at the playground.  The day yesterday was fine.  I also applied a bandaid and sat in on an MTSS meeting that made my brain hurt.  I feel like education more and more is just about going through steps in some new process instead of really focusing on the educational needs of students.  Somehow, we need to figure out a way to have those two things come together.

Today I have an admin meeting at the district office, but the highlight will hopefully be getting to watch the Bears preseason game tonight in its entirety.  Everything else about the day is a question mark.  I suppose that's a big difference in my job now versus previous days.  Now I never really know what the day is going to be like; previously as a teacher I pretty much knew how the day was going to go.
