I had another interview this week. It was for a part-time position in Hanover. The principal was interesting. She went on and on about how strong the theatre program is, then she told me the time-line of said program. For 10 years the school had a full-time teacher and did musicals like "Seussical" and "Annie". Then she cut the position to part-time, which caused the teacher to leave. Last year she had a teacher who was part-time theatre and part-time language arts. Since the LA position was cut and the teacher needs a full-time position, they are hiring someone for just part-time theatre. It sounds like to me that the theatre classes are on the chopping block. Now, that either means that theatre is low on the priority list for this principal or that the class numbers are low-- which would make sense if the teacher previously was doing only musicals. Let's be real-- if kids want to sing, they'll take chorus. I didn't leave with a sense of my prospects positive or not, but I don't know about if I'd take it part-time if it was offered to me. Sigh...
In Margot news, she mockingbird-ed her first curse word the other night. "B!tch". So proud. Before you get all judgey-pants, you should know that no one was calling anyone a b!tch. She also started sleeping in her crib for a few hours a night. Baby steps!
