praxis

I just signed up to take all three PRAXIS I tests on January 13th, 2007. Results are being submitted to the University of New Orleans for their Teach Greater New Orleans practitioner teacher program, the LA Department of Education, and the MD Department of Education.

I still need to sign up for the PRAXIS II Elementary Content test, but I can’t take any more tests on the January date and I’ll be down in New Orleans on the next date (March 3rd). I’ll have to arrange to take it while I’m there, but at least I’m signed up for the first three tests.

Conga-rats and good for you!

I meant to email you this link earlier; I'll just drop it here.

http://kidsandcommunity.org - that's the program, or rather, those are the programs. I was telling you about.

So that's what I'm working on getting myself into. Kinda overwhelming if I think about it too much, but you gotta do what you gotta do.

I remember driving past MLK Elementary School every day I was there and thinking that an empty school was just as eerie as the washed-out houses. Schools should be full of students, not flood debris. The school is right off of Claiborne, or Judge Perez, or whatever the main road is called at that point.

NOLA seems to follow me even when I'm in school. Like today the teacher left a box of French Quarter style cookies on her desk (decent, but pretty much just gingerbread with icing), and a couple of months back I pulled down the US map to burn up the last few minutes of a 4th grade science class and one of the kids pointed to where New Orleans would be on the map (it just shows state capitals) and said "you can't go there anymore."

I think if you can't get something out of your head then maybe it's supposed to be there.
