today was our first day going to the education center for work...nothing too intense. just preparing and getting acquainted with the center before everything starts on september 8th.
we spent the morning doing a mailing and getting binders ready for all the mentors that will be spending time with the kids at the center this year. in the afternoon, desiree and i met with shirley, the site director, to go over all our responsibilities and schedule for the year.
i am going to be in charge of tutoring in the center's library, keeping track of the attendance records, writing student and church newsletters, keeping correspondence with the mentors, organizing the incentive program, maintaining the bulletin boards, and running a weekly theme activity. during the days, we will also be helping other administrators at the center with whatever tasks they may need assistance with.
i guess writing it all in one place makes it sound like a lot of work, but from what i have gathered so far, it seems like it is going to be very similar to being an ra :) im sure there will be new and different challenges but maybe this wont be too far from what i am used to!
tomorrow its back to stuffing binders and helping out with whatever needs to be done before the center opens. and then the milwaukee brewers game on wednesday!
thats it for now...stay tuned for more updates!
