11th and 12th.
Got a bunch of nice kids.
The classes are pretty darn hard.
I teach the Honors Physics and 1 class of Calculus based Physics
for the kids who want to major in Engineering (AP class for college credit)
Smartest little group... God almighty for people
who think education is totally down the crapper
they should visit. I got very lucky to teach such
a good group.

And I never in my wildest dreams thought I would be teaching.
I worked in a research lab for about two years... blech.
Got very lucky to stumble upon teaching.

If you decide to teach middle school God Bless your soul.
Between the hormones and school... poor kids are just
goofed out. Good Middle School teachers are very hard
to find. So good luck if you go that route.

ND man I dont mean to sound like a parent,
but please dont waste too much money on
horses. I saw far too many kids get involved
in college and it was a disaster. It was as bad
as alcohol in many cases.

Weird you say this, I just had a long talk with my dad on this same issue. He knows how much I like to gamble, and doesn't want to see me develop a problem. I'm giving up going to the casino and playing cards for awhile, and if my twinspires account hits 0 it will probably be the end of that till Derby week.

Middle School were my favorite school days, so that is pretty much why I want to go that route.
