Just a little Respect

What does a teacher need?
A place to work.
Some students to work with.
Something to teach them.

What happens when you don't have these basics.. its pretty hard.

Thats where I am. No place to work. Yet expectation to teach them. No defined students yet expectations to find them.

Its hard to explain. But if I did, it sounds like I am complaining. When teachers complain, there is a little switch that goes off. People don't hear.

We had to move to two different rooms because the office didn't schedule me in for the new year. The student was a home school student, that had to come back on the campus that he left to home schooling. Then navigate through the 2800 student campus to the back, and when he got there, we had to move our session twice to get some work done.

I am supposed to get some testing done. All of the students are supposed to have their files examined and testing will proceed to bring us all into compliance. My relief teacher has not been found (or not informed of the change) and so I am still teaching my afternoon classes as they still keep coming.

This afternoon I received an email from my boss asking for a report on my progress to getting this testing done and lists that were made.

First the horse... then the cart.
