Grading and the End of the Quarter

We are 1/4 of the way through the 2007-2008 school year. I'm told that once you make it through the first semester, life gets a lot easier. I think probably once you make it through coaching soccer during the first quarter of your first year of teaching, life gets easier. Right now I'm exhausted and very behind on my grading, but I'm still loving teaching and still very glad I'm here. I was especially glad today as I watched our boys soccer team win the league championship today. They are the first BTA team to win the league. The first of many, hopefully. I'm so proud of them!
