Day 254

Focus Group Study
I was forwarded a Facebook notice about this research group looking for teachers.  I signed up, was contacted and invited to participate.  Now, now it was not out of the goodness of my heart...I was promised $100!!!  

So, I drove to downtown Concord (which I hate because I always get lost) and it was after a long day of teaching.  I parked in the underground parking lot, still a little skeptical and had to go up to the 13th floor...I didn't know buildings had a 13th floor!

But, it turned out fine.  I was given a sandwich to eat and the focus group lasted around 2 hours.  The topic of discussion was school climate, discipline plans, and character development for students.  

The best part was definitely the $100 check at the end of the night!
