Well, it's now official. After two interviews and an teaching observation, I was just offered a full time English teaching job at Mountain Ridge Junior High. I really wanted the job, and they had me sweating bullets for two days wondering if they liked me. Apparently they liked me a lot -- when I called them back, the vice principal said that I blew the competition away. Booyah! It was stressful, as they wanted to come and observe me teach on one of the last days of school -- everyone else in the building was having a party. My students were less than thrilled to be having a lesson instead, but it worked out well.
