Think Pink

Well March 15th is approaching and it is a very sad day for education.  People around the state of California are going to feel this budget crunch in ten years; when these kiddos hit the work force. It is amazing that the budget is being balanced on the future of our children.

With all that being said, Hemet Unified has done an exceptional job finding ways to preserve jobs.  With the original prediction of 200 pink slips being administered we were all panicking. Today the official word came out that there will be 28.  That's amazing.  So every teacher will be wearing pink on Friday to support those who will be let go.  I will be praying for wisdom. Wisdom of politicians, administrators, teachers, parents, voters.  I will be praying for patience.  It is hard to teach when your heart is not in it.  And last I will be praying for overall peace in this difficult time.
