Do y’all ever just stop and pray quietly in your classroom? I know we can’t lead it, but sometimes before my kids come in, I’ll say a quick prayer over their seats or for a tough student. The weight we carry as teachers isn’t light, and some days prayer is the only thing that keeps me grounded. Curious , do you pray at school, or have your own way of finding peace before the class starts?

I have prayed for my students, but not nearly enough. I have thought about my TA’s (who are also ladies of faith) and myself having prayers each day, but failed to follow through. 😞 I know we are being prayed over though. I know my TA’s have prayed for our children. Last year, before school began, people from the community came together to pray over the school and school year. It was great!

We had that a few years ago. I'm seriously thinking about having some of our ladies from our church come in and pray over our school, staff, and students.

I have prayed many times before students enter the classroom and at home. The weight is heavy and I cannot do it alone. God helps me every day.

Oh, so true. As a 25-year children's minister, sometimes I feel the urgency to pray over certain students. I take it to heart and add them to my prayer time. Often, I have found out later that the students were going through a bad situation, or feeling a lot of stress or anxiety.

I do pray for my kids but NOT nearly as much as I should. I will do better next year.

I like to pray for my students during nap time. I try to think of specific things going on in their lives and challenges we have had in class.
