My husband, Lou has been going to school for about a year and a half now to pursue his Master's Degree and become an English teacher. He's been working at Clovis High (where I went to high school) for a year now as an instructional aide. He worked his butt off this year (school and work). He coached, tutored, subbed, he did whatever they needed him to do. Over time he made some really great friends (other teacher's) and connected with many of his students. It felt good and he knew that that's where he wanted to teach if the opportunity presented itself.
There were a lot of talks, meetings, and maybes, but no promises. As it got closer to the end of the school year it looked like Lou would get an interview for a possible English/Debate & Forensics opening in the fall. We were not sure how many candidates there were, or if he would get it, but this was really the only option Lou entertained...He wanted it bad.
Well, yesterday...He had his final interviews (he went thru a total of 5 I think), and he SIGNED HIS CONTRACT. He is teaching Freshman English next year along with Debate and Forensics. He picked up the keys to his classroom yesterday. We went and saw his classroom last night.
So proud of you honey! You worked so hard to get here! I love you!
