Miracle of Miracles, I got a job interview after applying to 100's of jobs. I'm nervous, but I'm ok in my current job. So, a bit of "nothing to lose" . I'm a 15-year classroom vet teacher and a university adjunct. What would you say to make them consider this unique transition from classroom to dean makes the most sense?

Good luck. Sell how you plan to make a greater difference at the next level, how your classroom experiences benefit and strengthen that endeavor, and what you can offer to your future students in that position. You’ve got this!

Best of luck! I would also approach it by playing up the benefits of having a unique transition. The insights that you can bring, how maybe the lack of traditional pathway makes you a stand out candidate or something to that effect. Not entirely certain what kind of pathway or what they’d be looking for honestly.

That’s the best position to be in. Good luck!

What are some easy to make, low stress holiday meals for a school holiday staff party? I was "volunteered" by our principal to set it up this year (🙄). I'm making decorated sugar cookies but kind of drawing a blank when it comes to savory dishes. Bonus points if you have any adult holiday themed games or fun drinks to suggest! It's off school property and there will be a bar (thank god), for context.
