| Posted 3/24/2002 8:44 AM (GMT -6) |   | Due to severe budget cuts, 72 people from my district were laid off (not asked back for the coming school year)this past Thursday. I was the ONLY new teacher retained in my building. For me, I think the only reason I kept my job was that people were praying for me and God must have intervened. While I am infinitely greatful for my job, it doesn't feel good. Whether we were kept or not, we were called in one by one and had no idea what would happen until we were in the meeting; it was extremely traumatic (I had to sit at my desk for over an hour...wondering; my friend (who has three kids) had to wait from 7:45 to 1:45 to discover that she was cut. Please pray for all of these people. Many of them have children and are living from check to check.
Thank you.

| Posted 3/24/2002 2:54 PM (GMT -6) | | Geej, I will be praying. How sad. The last think schools need is less teachers! I substitute teach and I know the strain and stress teachers are under without taking away some of them.
I will be praying.
