World Kindness Day - Early Start

Say it Dufferently

Transitioning back to a full schedule with school, music, sports, and a myriad of activities and demand on our energies can be stressful.  Let's be mindful about our words.  They are powerful~

A Perfect Balance

"You only work 180+ days? You are so lucky!"

Yes, and yes...but

Those 180+ days are 24/7 about these little people whom we love: the students, their families, and their lives are constantly on our minds and in our hearts.  There is nothing like teaching (or school counseling in my case).  It is so deeply meaningful and we love it very much!

It can also be all consuming. So....fellow educators, please take the summer and take good care of yourselves.  Here is a wonderful article with some inspiring thoughts~  See you all in two months!
