So Long, Farewell...

For the next three weeks an admin intern will be working with us. He's a very nice guy. I was really dreading having this extra task. After giving it some thought, I've decided to use this opportunity to reflect on my practice. I'm sure his questions and observations will help me to know more, so I can do better. Yesterday, during lunch, we guarded the milk. I wanted to make sure he knew about one of my very important jobs. Of course, the kids asked if he was the new principal. I said he was. I was doing my best acting. I was very convincing. And guess what??? They weren't sad!!!! One kid was actually happy!!! He jumped up and down with delight. I couldn't believe it. Not one of them broke down in tears. I didn't even get a goodbye, so long, see ya. I have to admit I was a bit sad. Oh well.
