That along with other circumstances made me decide to leave my school of 19 years. I spent the summer waiting to see what and where I would be teaching. I had been offered a K position at the first interview I went to which was then put on hold due to budget. As the school year neared, I began looking again. Long story short, I did find a first grade job at the last minute. It was stressful not knowing over the summer. It was odd not knowing what I would be teaching, so no prep. (Every time I would try to learn about 5th grade just in case, it just didn't move forward.) <br />My advice would be enjoy the time to be you and not just a teacher. You will be more rested and ready for the year. Contrary to what we think, the children and families will not know if you spent the entire summer preparing and planning for the year. or just a few days or weeks.
