My district requires that new teachers perform acts of magic and cunning by somehow completing all the requirements for their job and an additional "new teacher program" which has required approximately 5-10 additional hours of work a week. Much of this is in the form of meetings and classes (I attended several all day Saturday ones) with long written assignments to complete afterwards, despite having just graduated from an accredited teaching college. My district does this because my governor decided it was a good idea to hire people without an education degree to be teachers and now must require school districts to turn them into teachers. So, I did all this extra work and now my school told the 4 of us who have hustled to complete a year long program in 4 months, that because re-appointment happens in April and we are not done with the program officially til May they can not simply re-appoint us. The catch 22 is that the chick who runs the "new teacher program" says we can't pass the program til we are re-appointed. Ahhhhhhhhhh I love bureaucracy.

It's not like they don't want me, I just am super frustrated.
