Yeah...it's true. I resigned from Copper Canyon High School--my first teaching job and the job I've had for the last seven years. It was a super hard decision, but ultimately it came down to the fact that I was that I was working a part-time job but I ended up working almost all day most of the week. It was more than I had in mind when I went part time. I wanted to spend more time with Noah and as it was, I was barely seeing him between the demands of the high school job and my community college job. So after a lot of discussion with family and friends, I resigned. Much to the dismay of my admin team. It was a right move for my family and they understood.
Don't fret, though...I'm not going to be so poor that I'm going to be asking you all for hand-outs. One of the reasons I was able to make this move was that I was offered a job teaching two days a week at Estrella Community College. I'm nervous and excited.
So good bye Copper Canyon and hello future! I will truly miss my friends at Copper (you know who you are), but I'll always be an Aztec at heart.

I'm sure this was a HARD decision for you. It's never easy to leave a place were you have developed strong relationships! However, I don't think you will every regret a decision that you make that you truly believe is the best for your husband and kid(s). Hurray for the new job opportunity!
