Teacher wellbeing and self-care is so important and it tends to be something that our profession does not prioritize. What are you doing this summer to take care of you?

I’m making meals that nourish my body and give me energy. I have a sourdough starter that I feed everyday, and it’s been really fun to go through the trial and error process of learning a new skill. Also, nothing beats sharing homemade bread (and maybe some wine) with friends.

I am going to the local farmer’s market every chance that I get just because I can (makes me happy!); devouring books like a maniac; snuggling my dog; and taking naps whenever I get the chance. I love being a teacher but learning to take time for myself makes me better.

Maybe I’m misreading the graphic, but if I feel like I need a pedicure, I’m not going to undermine that desire by trying to placate myself with making the bed. The two are not at all comparable. Treat yourself like the goddess that you are.

I need advice. A student at my worksite came to school with a gun. He’s a SPED kid, and administration did not inform anyone. I had to help the teacher and instructional aide deal with the incident. I told the AP that we needed to do more. I was ignored. I fear for the safety of teachers and students. What can I do, when union reps got involved and administrators did nothing.
