Four Preps and One Less Planning

[thehallway]

So basically I was 'offered' the chance to teach my favorite elective next semester today. I haven't taught it in two years due to the shortage of teachers in my department. They first wanted to just collapse a section of my AP World History and sort those kids into my other AP World classes and give me the elective. But that just means I'd have the same number of kids, plus my new section of kids, and just more grading and prep so I said I'd do it as an extra-contractual. Took them 28 minutes to move through the process and jump through the hoops of approving my extra-contractual. Yeah, it's more work, but at least this way I get paid for it. I'm already tired.

That sounds exhausting. I'm glad you worked it out so you'll get paid extra, at least!
