Thread Name: Thinking about leaving Guam. Nah, bought a house!
Subject: RE: Thinking about leaving Guam.
Today we had our general staff meeting. After the long prayer session (the printed version of the prayer takes up a page and a half) we got down to business. Most of it was a talk on the history of the founding organization but we heard about changes in staff and the good and bad things that happened since the end of the last school year. All the faculty and staff stood and introduced themselves. Then we broke to schedule meetings with our department heads.
As we were standing around talking one of the office women wandered around handing out little envelopes. The principal had mentioned that the school had something for the teachers to use in their rooms. It was a $50 bill! No receipts are necessary, no required purpose. It was a very nice touch but just think of the expense. There were 51 teachers and each got $50. $2550! I think I like this place.
