Today I received word I have been nominated by our principal for Outstanding Art Teacher of the year award for the Arts in Ed Council. I just finished writing a $8000 grant (actually a sum of two different grants, one used as a matching grant for the other) and it was intense. The photographer is working with our kids to create a permanent photographic collage on metal on campus and cyanotype journal books to be used in writing classes.
Here's to a great weekend after a truly hectic week of collecting signatures, writing endless letters, and late night perculating of yet more writing. No wonder I'm a little behind in my Master's writing homework - I'm all written out. Next week I have it that I can finally focus on guess what - writing for my Masters and doing the reading for that. The two grants have been huge for me and the school and being done gives me mental space to take on the next big giant.
Two weeks of intense data gathering, then analyzing. I am pumped.
