The end of the day is close. I am in the office working on some loose ends. Some major challenges are looming. Among them:
1) Task Force Workers’ compensation packages for next year.
2) Securing new funding to compensate for the loss to schools of the locally-funded option
3) Working through the process of identifying a workable paradigm for re-establishing an aviation program without cost to the school and without exposing the school and the sponsoring associations to financial risk
4) Four elementary evaluations with preceding in-services in the early new year
5) An Education Board and eight boards squeezed between Thanksgiving and Christmas Breaks
6) Personnel challenges across the conference
I love this job! By the way, a friend questioned the character of a person associated with recent initiatives to assist Adventist Education. I was a little surprised since it would be small, if non-existent, contingent to help move this initiative forward if faultlessness was a prerequisite. I am inclined to believe that the Bible and church history, in fact, is full of ordinary and fallible people who performed amazing things! I count myself among those who are very fallible—it’s a human condition. I am confident that God will accomplish great things here in Arizona—I am just thankful to be part of this process.
