So Evan was pulled into the principal's office to get a new schedule for next year, or so he thought. Evan was actually told that due to budget cuts, he no longer would be teaching technology education, but instead would be moved into the core classes and teaching 6th grade math and science. he was devastated!! He was so emotional that it made me cry. He was losing his baby of 6 years. Oh well. He was given a week to think about it and see if he wanted to take on that challenge, and realistically he wouldn't have a job if he said no, so, he is now a math and science teacher for the class year of 2010-2011.
We figure that he can do this for 5 years until the last technology teacher retires or until the economy turns around. Until that time, he will become a stronger teacher, learn new skills, and who knows, he may like these classes better. Heavenly Father never gives us trials that we cannot handle. So we will see what comes of this new position and what it means for our family.
We are excited, plus maybe I can help him grade papers:)
Yay to new challenges in life, especially now that he is excited about it! We are very grateful that he has a new opportunity and still has a job! We are blessed!
I love being a teacher!
