Today was the MLK holiday in mid January. We honored Dr. King this year by staying indoors by the fire and listening to the trees pop in our neighborhood. This was the view from my back window! Ice everywhere and I was happy to be home today!
My position here is a 12 month administrative position. This means that I do not work the school calendar. We have all of the national holidays off, of course but during the February break, the spring break and Christmas break we are working. While that may not sound like a good thing to you, there are certain advantages. We do, of course, accumulate a certain amount of vacation time that we can use pretty much when we want. So we can take our vacations at OUR convenience rather that at the dictates of the school calendar. If you think you might like to take some time off in, say, October, rather than trying to beat the crowds during February break, this may be the job for you. If you have little ones and need to be home when they are home – then now may not be the time for you to consider being an SLS director.
If, however, you prefer a little more flexibility AND off-peak rates, this may be for you!
