Okay I seriously know this is a fabulous position to be in but for someone who is as indecisive as I am it is a tortuous situation to be in as well. I am so afraid of making the wrong choice..
Here it is in a nutshell...I've been offered a counseling position at an elementary school and I've been offered a position counseling at a middle school.
The elementary school would be easy. I've been an elementary counselor for 9 years...I can do this job in my sleep. This is the plus side of this job...minus side is the school is much larger then my current school. I would be responsible for approximately 700 students as opposed to 350 students.
Middle school would be a switch. I'm already having to change because my school is closing so why not make a big change. The scheduling aspect of it scares me as does FCAT coordination. I've never been a middle school counselor...I know I can counsel the students but middle school teachers scare me. I wouldn't just be able to walk right in and know what I was doing...I would have to learn what to do.
So, tell me what you think folks...please comment. I've mulled this over in my mind back and forth..back and forth. My stomach is in knots. I don't want to make the wrong decision and I need to make a decision soon. Please let me know what you think...

Send me an e-mail with the schools and I'll let you know if I know anything about them or if I know someone that does. I have some good friends that are school board employees and I have family all over the county.
Two offers - AWESOME!!!
This is a great problem to have.
I'm assuming both position are equal in pay and benefits...
I'd go for the new experience. It will give you a more well-rounded resume. If you're still the same Migrane Mom I knew years ago, I'd say you're up for the challenge.
