All day long, students are being pulled out of the room for various reasons. Some just need to talk about personal issues or work out anger management problems or other various behavior problems... I'm starting to wonder if I can start getting pulled out of class a couple times a week for some help from the school psychologists, too! As I walked home the other night, I wondered if this sign was put up for me. :)
Hopefully my students won't push me too far! I have to say, though, some days I hold onto my sanity for Dear Life!

Hey there girl! This is your old teaching neighbor at Garfield to the east. Honestly, I was jealous of you getting out of the midwest and going to the Big Apple. I assumed there would be resources at your fingertips, but after reading your blogs, it sounds like you have the same frustrations as well as new ones (i.e. security). Don't let others around you rob you of your passion to have relationships with little people. Just like the Hokey Pokey, that's what it's all about!
We've all been where you are. Teaching ain't the easiest job in the world, no matter what outsiders say!
I hope you find what you need to stay sane and healthy.
