So last night I got a call from my boss, he had received an email from a teacher at my school recommending a candidate for my position! I assured him I had not quit (although our meeting that day had inspired me to think about it), I had also not told a teacher I was quitting. I know that my assistant is applying for my position at another school right now and had asked a teacher for a recommendation so that was most likely what happened.
I did tell him that I had been totally transparent in saying I would transition to a teaching position if that became available so he would not feel blindsided if I applied. However that did not affect my commitment to doing my best job at this time.
