Teachers Follow Teachers

Teachers who sip margaritas on a patio at least once per week have a happier summer, according to a study l just made up.

Summer break goes 10,000mph, and I’m still unpacking my brain.

‘Professional development’ this summer = therapy, naps, and iced coffee

Every teacher has heard it.

“At least you get summers off.”

It is usually said with the confidence of someone who has never managed 25 students, answered dozens of emails, documented behavior, planned lessons, and survived a full school year in education.

Teachers know the truth.

Summer is not just a break.

It is recovery.

First rule of teacher summer: if I see school supplies, I walked the other way.
