Tonight was our second family fun night of the summer. Got to meet so many of our incoming 6th graders and their parents. The school paid for two food trucks, a huge slide, and the Foamie People. We had a big turnout of people, along with vendors from the community. Tonight was an event that reminds me why I like being a teacher. Do you have any back to school event prior to the first week of the school year?

No, we've never done anything like that. We just get back to business. I always try to welcome the students by talking a bit about their summer, more or less as a transition into the school year and what we'll be studying. But food trucks and a giant slide might make more impact, I must say!

It is amazing! My favorite thing is when a parent or student asks what the price is for the food and drinks, and you can tell them it us free. One of our incoming 6th graders leaned in to where I was helping them register for the drawings, and whispered "How much does the food cost?" When I told him it was free, his eyes lit up, and he was so excited.

We had that happen last year during an important day. The mom just showed up the pick up her child during the event (a no cell phone time). She said her child had started her period and "bled through". Now I understand the seriousness of the situation, but the student "didn't have her phone" and that momma is noy a psychic! 🤔

Hi fishes,
I was selected for a l3 role via IJP in the 1st week of may and the hiring manager informed me via email that i had been selected for the role and requested confirmation to proceed with offer letter generation. I didn't hear anything from HM after that. When can I expect to receive an internal offer letter? Should I contact HM to know about the status ? Please provide some insights. TIA :)
