People Keep Asking . . .

People keep asking me how I feel about retiring. I'm not sure. I have really nice classes this year, so I will miss that. I decided a long time ago that I didn't want to into administration, and that was a really good decision. Didn't want to be department head, didn't want to be a dean, assistant principal, principal, or superintendant. (Or as Ralph Wiggum says, "Supernintendo.") The politics here has been interesting in recent years (ok always). Word on the street is that one of our adminsitrators is leaving to be a principal elsewhere. That school will be lucky. This individual has done much to turn around the atmosphere in what used to be a really toxic school. While not perfect, this individual always had the interests of students in mind. Which sadly, not all people in education have. The politics I won't miss. But I guess whatever I do next will have its share of intrigue. . .
