My First Post

Hello and welcome to my website and personal blog! As I continue to develop this online space,  I will seek innovate ways to use this tool to connect with my students, families, and colleagues. I am open to your feedback as I work to make this space user-friendly and informative. ​

I am preparing for my big transition from Washington, D.C. back to my home in Encinitas, California. This move has been inspired by a number of factors:

• The desire to return to the West Coast
• The opportunity to work in a high school
• The hope to be closer to family and friends
• The excitement of a new adventure

Though I am thrilled to start this new chapter in my life, the transition across country is filled with unknowns. It is also quite costly! As I begin a new teaching position as a high-school Spanish teacher, I am encountering many "start-up" costs of moving into a new school, classroom, and age group (as I have been teaching elementary school Spanish in D.C.). However, this is a dream come true and I have no regrets. 

Check back soon for a new post, as I am hoping to post regularly about my move and the next steps in "Joey's Grand Adventure to California!"

Truly yours,

​Joey
