I work with a veteran staff and I have had the opportunity to work with great teachers. I feel welcomed and the principal is trusting in my abilities and has provided me the opportunity to run my own program and I’m still making adaptations to reach all of the students.

I know we get evaluated twice a year, but you need to stop and see your staff at least once every few weeks to gain a connection with them and show them that you are willing to help them. New teachers need more support because of the lack of experience. It’s hard being new because you are going to experience things you never have during student teaching.

While they would tell me that they became satisfied with my background and abilities rather quickly, the fact that they even considered that aspect both surprised me as well as annoyed me somewhat. By that point in my teaching career, I had been in a classroom for over twenty years and was fairly confident that I could handle just about anything that arose in any classroom in any school system. But, once again, the viewpoint of some people who believed that teachers in a Tech School classroom weren’t as proficient or as adequately prepared as teachers from a public school, just reminded me of that “second class” image that was still out there about Tech
