Yesterday was a very encouraging day! I was hired as a French Teacher at Community Christian School Westfield! It is very exciting! CCS is a university model school, which means that kids go to school 3 days a week and they have a university-like schedule (they have different teachers, sign up for elective and subjects, etc...). Kids work at home the other 2 days of the week. The idea is to combine homeschooling and regular schooling in order to help out parents who don't feel fully equipped to homeschool. It is a great system. It really is a partnership between the school and the parents. So far, I am assigned to teach junior high and high school French but, depending on new arrivals and registration, I may also be teaching elementary French. If you'd like to know more about university-model schools and my new job check out this website: www.ccsfamily.org/index.php
On top of it all, I already had 6 people ask me about piano lessons. Because we don't have a house yet, I am hoping to start teaching at church.
John and I have been enjoying the great New-England outdoors. We climbed a mountain last weekend. We also took Buddy out in the river for his first swim! It was fun to finally get him accustomed to water!
