So, there is an opportunity in my school district to facilitate long distance online learning for all three high schools. It’s posted and open now, which means I would have to leave in the middle of the school year. My running mechanism says, yes, or is it saying, no. Hmmmmm….I want out of this job, but I know I’ll feel guilty and sheepish leaving mid-year. What do you say to the students and parents? When you leave a teaching job, at least for me, it’s not just a job left. It’s really a community. I’ll probably just finish out the year where I am and hope a job like that will post again. Not even sure I want that job, just want out of where I am. Also want to leave the right way, not on the run without looking back. That’s how pursuing this job would feel, I think.
