The principal expressed a lot of enthusiasm in me and my

Thoughts on how it went? Thank you so much .

Side note: I interviewed at another school in the district
and didn't get it. The principal called and said I did
great and there was nothing I could improve on . That same
day he called me this principal called to set up an
interview.
