Yes, the educators are struggling, tired, and deserving of all the support. But, man, the secretaries, nurses, and custodians are overwrought, too.

Hey principals:
You’re pretty awesome. Thanks for all you’re doing.
I mean, COVID, quarantines, sub shortages, tik tok soap dispenser & urinal cake thefts…but you show up, step up, & keep things going. Thank you.

And then...
...she rested.
She stopped worrying about her remote students, school shootings, getting her family sick...
...for a few days.
They called it #SpringBreak2021.

I do a lot of writing, speaking, coaching, and consulting on time management.
Here is the first step to managing your time.
It is impossible to better manage or focus your time when you are validated by your own exhaustion

My grandmother used to tell me about the polio epidemics when she was a kid; schools & shops closed, her mom kept her inside. I think it's important for our kids to know that what they're going through today happened before. One day they'll tell their story to their grandkids.
