Interviews and Placements

We all did your interviews this morning! I interviewed with our top three choices which means that we get some say in where we work. I interviewed with St. Martin's Catholic School (Which is an absolutley beautiful new school with a small student body), Schreiber Public Library(kind of small but they have guitar hero and a really nice librarian and assistant) and Schreiber Public School (a very small school with graduating classes of 5 students, but a very cool placement all the same).

After all our interviews were finished Terri drove us to the house and everyone changed out of their nice clothes and either went to the bakery (a local hang out of ours with fantastic sweets) or went to sleep (which is what I did). Terri went back to talk to the interviewers and figure out a schedule that would suit everyone.

When she got back, she teased us with white envelopes with our names in them that had our placements inside and made us clean some donated furniture and move it inside before we could open the envelopes up. We cleaned quickly and argued a bit about where to put the extra dresser in the girls room and then came downstairs and waited. Maddy quized me on simple French speaking excerises and then Terri came downstairs with the envelopes.

And (drum roll please) I have been placed in two places! Most of the group has been actually. There were some original placements that were paired together (like Schreiber Public School and the daycare next door) but they were all shuffled around to accomodate everyone's wishes.

I will re-write what Terri wrote on the page in my envelope.

Sara

You were the talk of the town today, my dear. You truly, truly knocked the socks off of everyone. We had to accomodate (willingly!) all the people who wanted you, so we created a new position! (insert smiley face) You will be back in Italian Terriory in Schreiber at:

Mondays: Schreiber Puble School

Tuesday-Friday: Schreiber Puble Library.

Muy Buen! I can't wait to see/hear about all you accomplish! xoxo Your P.L Etraordinaire.


On Monday afternoon I will be paired with the other Sarah at the school (she is there everyday as well as the daycare) and we will be able to hang out.

Tomorrow we are going to make bread in an outside oven in Rossport (a town west of us) and it is going to be fun. This is the last week that we will buy bread. Everything from now on is baked by us. Omg, like wow.

Love all around,

Sara.
