Survived one week!
However, there are still many many things that we need to get done as quickly as possible, so....argh! It's going well enough, but things are rather busy. The guy who's been teaching them and who is supposedly still supposed to be there barely puts in appearances at the schools. There are students playing on instruments without shoulder rests, without rosin for their bows, and even ones missing strings! There are many students who don't seem to be taking instruments home to practice, they are not wanting to follow our directions, and they need some new music. Plus, we need to get together a parent information letter to send home, including concert dates, classroom expectations, many other little basic business items, and a rental agreement for those students using school instruments ~ the other guy never had them sign anything! Additionally, we still don't even have access to the school's computer system. *shakes head* Nothing like jumping in feet first and finding up to your neck or higher... rolleyes
