PORCH PONDERINGS

The Teacher

Remember I told you that a teacher at the high school got summarily told she was not rehired for next year? Well, in Facebook for the community the other reporter for the newspaper put a 'teaser' promo out. She promised a 'tell-all' from both sides about this incident.

One thing mentioned in the post was that "“Employees who resign are eligible to apply for positions in the future.” I wondered about this statement by the superintendent. Why would I want to apply for a position that I was asked to resign from? Interesting. This person, superintendent, is in deep doodoo right now. As is the entire school board. Parents, teachers, students. It will be interesting to see what transpires.

Now, I wasn't asked to do this. I subsequently emailed the teacher and asked for an interview. But I told her I'd like to forget the school drama, and focus on the personal side, her family and her history. We'll see if she responds.

And finally I am getting over this blasted coughing. Cough syrup- inhaler. Finally!!!!
