ORANGE CONES ALL AROUND MY PROFESSIONAL LIFE
So, today was almost laughable. I sat in a staff meeting and listened to one of the principals announce to us that for the first time the district was in a serious deficit that would cause the powers to be to look at cuts.
I know, I know, just go ahead and start putting up the orange cones around my professional life!!!! No one came right out and said staffing cuts, but I think a lot people started reading between the lines.
Now, I gotta tell you, that I'm convinced that I'm down here for a reason. Stuff just wouldn't have fallen into place as quickly as it did otherwise. I am second guessing the whole education as a long term career goal, but I believe there is a purpose for me being here in Kentucky.
I sit here, slightly confused, a bit perplexed, and more than a little concerned, but knowing full well that there is a force greater than I working through all this. I will continue to do my job ... do it well ... and move on from there.
More to say about this subject, I'm sure ...
