I'm not kidding; I teach in a juvenile prison.
The wacky life of a prison teacher. Some days we'll cover the antics of GED students. Some days I will rant against my boss or fellow teachers. If you are lucky someone will try to escape and you will get my blow by blow account. Other days you will hear about some sex offender antics. And yet, some days will have nothing to do with prison, so beware. You think I'm kidding about Tuesdays don't you...

Absolute Total Chaos

Filed Under () By Prison Teacher at 7:56 PM

Our Guidance Counselor quit. They ran out and hired a new one and by the time they got her in her office with a password to turn on the computer she had a half day to create class rosters! Ha Ha Ha! The principal was in a panic as she saw classes overcrowded, with not enough desks for the young thugs! Oh, it was great. I was surprised by my class line up on the first day of classes...I have that subject today? OK. Luckily I had the work ready. Some teachers had classes assigned that they didn't even have textbooks in the building for! I am supposedly getting new textbooks tomorrow. We'll see. It was fun to see all the chaos. It might settle down by next Tuesday. I'll let you know.

Ye ha. Glad that you have a relatively positive attitude toward the whole thing. And congrats on the desk!
