Small Town Happiness

Sadie Stanton worked five years teaching fourth grade students, and loving it every minute. It was a career she had chosen ever since she was in the fourth grade, all because of the teacher she had that made learning enjoyable and achievable. Sadie wanted to be like her by making learning fun, and interesting for her students. Sadie was always an elite student, and through her school experience as a student, she understood it wasn't so much the subject being taught as it was about how the teacher presented it. Sadie always remembered that through the years. After teaching for five years Sadie was about to quit her teaching career. She had worked hard, and the kids responded with most of them reaching or exceeding the State Standards each year. The problem was that a lot of her co-workers resented her. They felt she was making them look bad, and that put a target on Sadie's back. It made the workplace very uncomfortable and a hostile place for Sadie, to say the least. Not certain what it would be like if she was to leave what she thought was her dream job, and now not knowing if she would ever want to teach again, but she knew she couldn't stay there any longer. Sadie knew she was ready to begin a new chapter in her life. She decided she would search for a new job, in a new town, and a new start. Would Sadie find what she wanted all her life or maybe that life some how would find her.
