After a year and a half of COVID teaching, I got to go back to work this week with all students on campus. It was a joy to see them all so excited to return to school. So many students wearing new shoes, backpacks, and ready to learn. Parents were just as excited as the students too. Teachers, students and parents wore masks but at least they were all at school.
I’m so excited to be back in person! I’m completely worn out though…emotionally, physically, and intellectually. Just a reminder to be kind to the educators in your world. They are working hard and give all they have to make a difference every day in children’s lives. Teachers, secretaries, paraprofessionals, instructional assistants, librarians, custodians, lunch personnel, administrators…..it takes a lot of amazing people to make the school a wonderful place for students. Do me a favor and thank someone at your school this next week. Everyone likes to feel appreciated.
