Once Upon the First Day of School
My first day on the job was ethereal. A week after receiving my temporary teaching license (the length of that process alone makes any future teacher run the other way), I landed a position as a middle school English/Language Arts teacher. Glamorous, I know. What is more, I was assigned to teach at a so-called urban school (inner city school) after quitting a corporate job and going through the 1,001 hoops of my county's public school process.
