3/4 of the year done!

Hello all, wanted to just say hello and let you know how things are going. Next week is finals week at my school, which means we are three-fourths of the way done with the school year! It's hard to believe. I feel like I finally hit my stride this quarter, after a fairly discouraging second quarter. As a reminder, we live in Colorado now, in a town called Castle Rock, about a half-hour south of Denver. We like it here so far. I must say I don't miss those dreary and cold Ohio winter days. We have had an unusually warm winter here (it's sunny and 70 degrees today and I'm sitting here with the door open and the breeze blowing in).
I am helping coach girls' soccer (it's in the spring here). We have our first game tomorrow (super pumped). I've never coached girls before and was kinda nervous because everyone told me to expect a lot of drama. But it has been a lot of fun so far.
I really like the high school I'm at. It's only three years old and the teachers and admin are great. Everyone is really motivated to be there and enjoys teaching.
We had a bond fail last November, which really sucks, so there is a teencie chance I might loose my job. I'm staying positive and hoping for the best. If that happens, I might be on my way back to Ohio.
Hope to hear from some of you soon. Tell us all what you are doing. If you can't figure out how to post here, send me an email at jmneal11@aol.com

Back to School, back to school, to prove to dad that I'm not a fool.

Hi everyone. Hopefully you have found your way here and have registered and can now post to our blog. This is our open forum for whatever we want to say to each other. Check back often (if you use iGoogle you can get a feed to show when someone has posted to the blog). You can post text, pictures, videos, and links (I have not figured out a way to post files, such as Word files for lesson plans). Don't forget to leave comments to the posts, especially if someone is asking for advise or has a question. Also make sure you identify yourself somewhere in your post.
Hopefully this works well and we can stay in touch. Again, let me know if you did not get an invitation, or if you noticed anyone missing from the email I sent out.
I already got a return message from Jesse and Tony, so if anyone has alternate emails for them leave a comment or email me and let me know.
