In April I became depressed and desperate. My idea? Become a teacher! Stop feeling like a failure and try my hardest. So, I began the long and arduous process of applying to school districts.
Below is the breakdown of exactly what this process entailed.
Number of school districts I applied for: 19 (62 if you count ESD113 as separate districts, which I should)
Number of single positions I applied for: 111Number of pools I applied for: 7
Number of calls I received: 6
Number of interviews I participated in: 3
Number of jobs received: 1
That's right, I actually succeeded! I'm officially a 4th grade teacher at Lakeridge Elementary in the Renton School District. I'm technically teaching in Seattle, if you go by my address.
But, I did it! I fulfilled one of my dreams!
School starts August 31st...
