Welcome

After numerous requests from many loyal readers of the Prague Blog and the Tetsu no Otoko no Buroggu, I am hereby beginning my third entry in blogspace.

I am a first-year high school mathematics teacher in Massachusetts. Out of privacy concerns, I am obliged to omit some details from my posts. I don't want my tech-savvy students Googling themselves, or their teachers, and finding this space. Nevertheless, I intend to provide some insight into what goes on behind the scenes at a high school, from a bright-eyed and bushy-tailed first-year teacher.

Admittedly, I am starting this blog a bit late. Naturally, the school year started in September, and there is much to post on from the events of the past four months. I hope to get to the stories and epiphanies which stick out from that time, but if they were any indication, I won't be short on material to post. Life is stranger than fiction.

In the first four months, I have seen students go to rehab, parents ask me to change their child's grade, students ask me the unanswerable, "So are we going to do anything difficult today? It's Monday, and so therefore we shouldn't do anything hard. OK?", to an in-school blowjob (between students) and the wild fallout that ensued.

Yes, you can't make this shit up.

I hope you enjoy.
