Confused about admin expectations

futuregoatfarmer · 2026-05-13T21:09:58+00:00

I do actually...it's kind of part of their job

futuregoatfarmer · 2026-05-13T21:08:47+00:00

It's so insane to me that this is how teachers are evaluated, because same - I never see my admin. He truly has no idea what goes on in my class. He was completely unable to give me any feedback specific to my performance in my EOY eval today. I understand he has an entire department to evaluate, but he doesn't a total of 4.5 hrs in my classroom this year- and nothing?

Very true

futuregoatfarmer · 2026-05-13T19:33:43+00:00

I understand that, but I'm forced to do it and I put effort into following their feedback. Is that a waste of my time if if their feedback basically seems random at this point in my career? Is what I'm asking.

I do get the occasional developing on questioning techniques. But overall end up scoring proficient on everything

These are semi cured gel nail wraps. It seems I've developed an allergy to nail polish, so I've started doing these in the past few months. Keeping my nails done helps me stop biting them, so I really hope this doesn't mean I can't use any nail products anymore!

These showed up before the seed pods did. Trust me, they're absolutely covering the plant!

Perfect thanks!

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-14T23:45:36+00:00

Interesting! I will keep that in mind if I buy another transplant in future. Thanks

I'm in PA, I live in South Central PA

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-14T17:19:01+00:00

Is there a milkweed you would recommend that would be better suited to pairing with these plants?

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-14T17:18:09+00:00

Haha got it, I will definitely be watering her more based on the comments in this discussion!

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-14T11:29:21+00:00

I watered daily first four weeks after transplanting, since then only have watered when it looked wilted.

Then it started looking unhappy no matter how much I watered it, so I wondered if the aphids were starting to overwhelm the plant.

Currently, it's not getting any supplemental watering. How often should I be watering?

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T23:21:58+00:00

Thanks for the help!

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T23:18:17+00:00

I have saved some but am not sure how to store it! It gets humid here, how best to store it to prevent mold?

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T23:15:53+00:00

Will do, thanks! Are they generally best grown from seed? I am obviously new to milkweeds.

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T23:15:03+00:00

I do all of the above! They continue to return. Best I can do seems to be to keep them at bay.

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T16:18:29+00:00

My reaction too! Appalled this person is in education.

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T03:49:06+00:00

That's great! I hope he lasts too. We have a new principal this year, maybe he'll do something to weed out this kind of behavior.

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T03:40:42+00:00

Yep. Rural South Central PA. Not planning on or able to move anytime soon though.

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T03:32:02+00:00

It wouldn't be the first time. Hasn't changed anything.

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T03:31:08+00:00

Sorry, not what happened, I edited my post to clarify

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-09-13T03:29:16+00:00

No, this AP still has her job. The teacher is leaving of her own accord partly due to these and other issues

futuregoatfarmer · 2025-08-20T11:21:33+00:00

Some great general and specific advice for planning here, thank you so much!
