We found out our placements today! I was starting to have some anxiety about not knowing where I was going or how I would get there, but I of course feel much better about all that now! I will be going to San Miguel Middle School and working in an 8th grade classroom. I get to stay at home and no one is staying with us. Lacey is going to pick me up on her way to school because we have the same placement. The good thing is that it is on the way for her, but we will still have to leave very early in the morning.
San Miguel is different than the middle school that I went to in almost every possible way. San Miguel is tiny, Wayzata was massive. San Miguel is almost completely Hispanic, Wayzata was almost 100% caucasion. San Miguel is private, Wayzata was public. San Miguel is in the city, Wayzata was in the suberbs. All of this will only add to the richness of my experience. Another good thing about my placement is that it is in an 8th grade Language Arts class. I have never worked in a middle school before so this will be very beneficial in deciding what grade I would like to teach. Also, since I will be licensed to teach an 8th grade Language Arts class, I think I should have the experience doing so! This is all so perfect!
