"On the Line"- Day 27

Been on the line about how aggressive to be with a job opportunity.  I think the interview went well, but I know I won't get it, and realize I am ok with it, because I have an ethical problem with the way parts of the program operate (in the most simple form, I want to teach students, not appease parents).  I am on the line as to just email the principal and say thanks but withdraw my name, or wait and see then tell her, or just shut up.  I kind of called them out on it in the interview and they looked a bit surprised and one got defensive.  I stopped before I said, "Let me be clear...you need a good teacher, I already have a good teaching job...so good luck...".  & if the long shot happens and it gets offered I will be vocal to the principal about this (I don't think she disagreed with me) before I would ever say yes.  Probably didn't help that the day before my ILT just rocked it and I was still on a high...just keeping options open!
