Before summer I posted that I was nervous about our new principal, but one month in to the school year and I can thankfully say that he is actually a great principal! Time will tell if he'll keep being this great but with everything else on my plate this turned out to be something I didn't need to worry about. It is just very helpful with everything else I have on my plate this school year. I feel like admins can make/break working at a particular school sometimes!

Only a month in so hard to say for sure but everything seems to be on par. He is a little more conservative personality-wise but very organized and on top of everything so far. So I'd say overall climate is pretty good.

Hi, weird question for this forum, so I apologize. I’m trying to be creative here and use the tv stand that I have. The issue is that it has an open back so you can see all my tv wires. I can’t hide the wires because my building won’t let me open the wall. My idea was to slip a tile sheet that is wall behind the tv stand as a back, but I need the tile cut to the specific heigh and width of the tv stand. Does anyone know where I can take this tile sheet to get cut to the specific measurements?

I feel like I'm at my wits end. I teach self-contained classes and according to the ISBE website my classes shouldn't be more than 8 students unless I have an aide - then it can be 10. I have no aide and most of my classes are around 14 kids. Some with behavior plans that are only out of our behavior room setting for my class... Is anybody else out there going through illegal class sizes for self-contained? How are you dealing? Maybe a vent session is in order.

Without warning it looks like we'll be switching from consultant teaching to inclusion...what do I need to know.
