Just when I thought I was done...

Just when I thought I was done with subbing, I got a phone call. It was the person in charge of the sub office for the town I live in. For those of you who don't know, I work for a school district outside the town I live in. The district I live in (district 1) is very competitive. VERY. So when my collage did not let me sign up to be a sub while I was student teaching, I missed out. When I submitted my application to be a sub after I graduated, I was informed that they were not hiring any more subs until someone quits. So you can imagine my surprise when they called me to ask if I wanted to be a sub for them. (Insert jaw drop.)

So my afternoon was spent signing up to be a sub for the school district that I actually live in!! It was so different from the district I currently sub for(district 2.) Here are some of them: 1.) The way I found out I was a sub. With district 2, I did not find out I was a sub for them until I called them to ask if they got my application. 2.) District 1 sat me down and gave me a manual, told me where to get my on-line training, and talked me through everything. District 2 had me sign some forms and wished me good luck. 3.) District 1 offers me actual training. District 2 does have some great websites but I'm not really welcomed to any training. 4.) I get called in by secretaries in district 2. District 1 calls me in using a tella service. (Meaning a computer is going to call me.)

Now don't go thinking that I favor one district over the other. I don't. They are just so different and I am so excited to have the opportunity to work in both. Both districts have different obstacles to over come and they both do amazing jobs over coming them. I am so excited to learn from this new opportunity. I can't wait to see how I will grow in my own profession. :D
