Hi all-

I have been a counselor at a high-achieving private school for 10 years. I like where I work, I like the people I work with, I make good money. I’m just also a little burnt out. The commute is 40 minutes each way on a good day. We are also getting a new principal this year for the first time in about 16 years.

A job opened up at a public school where my kids will also attend one day (they are in elementary now). Slight pay cut, however, commute is 15 mins each way.

I guess I’m just not sure what to do. Which I recognize is a good position to be in, having 2 options.

Basically, I’ve spent so long in a private school, I’m kind of having imposter syndrome about moving to a public school. It’s also hard to know when the right time to leave a job is. Like do i leave and start over basically? Or stay where it’s comfortable?

Are public high schools that much harder/different? Has anyone moved from private to public?

Thanks for listening (reading)

Curious how often coaches change their playlist- I have two coaches at my studio (one I go to literally every Sunday) and another who I was going to every Thursday that I swear they have not changed their playlist in MONTHS.

I like both coaches so it’s not a deal breaker for me, but just curious if anyone else experiences/notices this at their studio?!

I just got a text that my Thursday class is canceled, but it is still showing on the app and I’m still booked - this is a first for me. Has this happened to anyone before?
