Marching on

The time has come. Monday is the day. After 6 years of college and two degrees later, I am finally starting my job as a SLP. The first week is orientation, second week is when all teachers start, and then the third week, I get to meet my students. I'm glad they add those few days before the kids start to get situated and oriented to everything. I have two schools - an elementary and a middle school - so I'll have two places to get ready. My middle school is only 2 or 3 years old and it is beautiful on the outside. Haven't had the opportunity to go inside yet, but orientation is in that building, so I'll get to see it lots. As far as the commute, I think that I am pretty lucky. Three days a week I go to my elementary school, which is only....2 miles away!!! The middle school is only 20 minutes away and I go there two days a week. Not too shabby. I'll take it. I'm so excited to meet my kids and just get going. I hope they are just as excited (doubtful. =])
