Choosing a School

"Choosing" a teaching position can be a monumental task.  It's making a life change.  It's committing to a cause. It's deciding to be a part of a legacy.  I saying "choosing" a school is difficult because choice might not even seem like part of the equation.  For me, there was no choice my first year.

I heard about the development of my school when it was just in the making--years before it actually existed.  I believed in what it promised for students and I could relate to the urgency behind the cause.

I am a persistent individual, and once my mind gets set on something, I work to make it a reality.  That was the case with NP.  I finally secured a position in December of 2012 and I dropped everything to make teaching 1st grade fit into my life.
