I received my assignment for the second half of my student teaching
This is going to be a VERY different experience as far as the students go. These students come from higher income families (19% free or reduced lunches vs. 75% at Sweetwater), so it will be interesting to see how different that really makes the school.
The schedule will also be a little different. They run on a block schedule, which means four classes a day as well as something called PRIDE which I cannot find a description for on their website. I have never been in a block schedule, so that will be new for me.
The teacher does US History classes, which I must admit, disappoints me a little. I prefer World History over an subject, and Geography would be nice as well. US History just isn't as interesting to me, and because I will be there during the spring semester, it will be US History after Reconstruction, which I find even less interesting.
However, I am very excited to start and see how high school is. I know it will be quite different in many ways.
