I got a job. It is at the same school district but obviously different from what I have been doing. A week ago Friday I got called for an interview with the Bonneville School District for an interpreting position. Things looked good, I was excited/anxious for the change, and ready to give notice to the part time job I started at the beginning of the month. The one hang up was they had to keep the position open for 10 days before offering a job and it had only been 3 full days. Ten days was Thursday and schools starts tomorrow. that did not give them alot of time to find someone or me if they offered me the job to give notice at the other district. We would have to find Piper a new daycare facility and I was not ready to give up the place she has been going to. Then later that same Friday afternoon my old boss called. She had an interpreting position just open up and my name was on the top of her list. I guess my constant emails all summer and asking about interpreting positions was a good thing. The job is working in a self contained classroom with students I have worked with in the past. I have been at this school for 3 years and know most of the staff. I of course accepted the position and called Wes to tell him I got a job. Now Piper can stay in her daycare and I will be going to a school that I at least am not completely the new person. Know i find out that though my title is interpreter the real position is class room aide. This student they say does not need an interpreter all the time so I will be doubling as aide. This ought to be interesting. I am still excited about the position but I have a feeling I am going to be explaining something to the teacher about legal service time on an IEP. If the service time says all school day then legally I need to be with that student all school day.
