I was reflecting on the end of summer (yes, barely into July and I'm thinking about the end). A time when teachers get a little time off. No more getting up at super early hours (at least for high school teachers). Time to catch up on record keeping, house work, projects and, yes, family and some summer shenanigans. Sometimes the vacations and summer fun can lead us to forget until one day we way up think "oh crap, summers almost over and I haven't done anything!" And next thing we know we are going to training sessions, sitting though endless meetings, and trying to get our rooms ready for students and much of our housework falls into disarray again.
With this year being a short summer in Florida as we transition back to an "August to May" school year, I'm sure there will be a lot of mixed emotions to the start of this year. Still the excitement of new students and starting a fresh new year, but also the bewilderment of where the summer went and what does this new year hold (good and bad).
Well, Happy New School Year!! 😳
