Good Interview at St. Josephs

I had a really good interview at the Academy of St. Josephs Girls HS. I was given a tour of the Academy, which is on some of the prettiest land, by the Social Science Department chair. I sat in on five classes (3 world history classes, and 2 20th century classes).

It was nice that I could impress the girls in my class with my knowledge of oxygen deprivation on everest or the reasons how court ceremony worked in ancient china. But in two different classe3s the girls reacted in the same way "wow, he's so smart."

that was nice to hear.

Now Diane will call me to schedule a class teaching exercise. How do I do in the classroom. How do the girls respond and how do I do with them. At the moment I am the only person up for the job.

It was nice to be wooed a bit. They were impressed by my resume to the point that they wondered "why would he want to work here." But I think it would really be good. I could work on or start a photography club. I mentioned to the AD about how I would photograph the basketball games at Farmingdale.

His eyes opened and told me that it was a great idea. the girls would love it. he, himself, had photographs still hanging in his home of random photos taken at his sporting events.

the school is small and it doesn't get too much attention in the rough and tumble world of Long Island high school sports. so the girls would probably really like some kind of memento.

Theres a lot of potential there. and its exciting to be desired for the position.
