What's next?

How do you leave a school where you have spent every working day of your adult life? I knew that question would arise eventually; unfortunately, because the building is being "re-purposed" and will no longer be a middle school, the decision must be made a bit sooner than I had planned.
I have to figure out what I will do next -- new position, same position in a different school, or something altogether different.
As the media specialist, I need to determine what things aren't worth keeping and what stuff will be useful to someone or some program next fall. What goes, what stays (obviously not in the building, but in the district), what to do with the stuff that goes -- maybe someone can use it somewhere or will it just end up in a landfill somewhere?
