If I won the lottery the 1st thing I would do would be to tell the administration that they have forgotten how it fell to be in a classroom with all the the hats we wear as teachers. The 2nd thing I would do would be quit and be on the 1st flight to a exotic island so I can be pampered like a king that I am. If I had to give some advice to my replacement it would be to tell them do not recreate the wheel follow the plans that are here but put your twist to it. I would also tell them to do not smile until after Christmas break and stay firm but fair on all rules.
Chris, You made me laugh! Personally, in my life I have spent more time than I'd like recreating the wheel. I think it has been in the name of putting my own twist on things. What I love about NTI is that the information we are given is so relevant, recreating the wheel is not necessary. Therefore, your replacement would only have to put their twist on it. Better yet, they might not do a thing at all to it. Your 2nd piece of advice is my favorite piece...firm but fair on all rules. So self explanatory. Great post!
