As the Dean of Discipline for the high school in my district. I have been a middle school counselor here for 6 years. I am sooo scared! I have so many new responsibilities and still don't know how to do this job yet. My whole office is in my car waiting to go, including my small fridge! It just seems so unreal.

Social worker is heavy stuff too! I did that job before and its incredibly hard- my heart goes out to you.
Being the dean is awesome- I love the responsiblity to make decisions- we have a pretty strict dress code in our district now and I was sick of seeing boobs hanging out everywhere so I decided no more spaghetti straps- My principal is like, sure, you are in charge of that. I really love it and I am at an incredible school so its extra special.
Good luck with your job- It is such an important one!

thank you so much for your vote of confidence - it can be scary/overwhelming being a social worker - i feel very intimidated by the principal and APS, just trying to do my job and help the kids but it is hard.......tough stuff i see. it definitely puts things in perspective!!!
