Ack!

My head is swimming.

I am looking at schools for Il Tonino for fall 2009. So many choices. It is overwhelming.

Soon we will start going to some school open houses and trying to get a feel for what we like.

My mom will help, for which I am grateful. This is one instance in which her many, many years as a teacher and then later as a supervisor of student teachers will really come in handy for me. She'll come and just observe in the classrooms and observe the student-teacher interactions.

I think I'll be figuring a lot of it out based on my intuition.

I'm kind of hoping the school(s) I like the most will be within walking or biking distance. But knowing life, I'll probably like the one that is the farthest away!

Any advice for us when we are looking?
