Today’s read, tomorrow’s read, the next day’s read, and the next day’s read. There’s way too much on teachers’ plates and education is such a stressful (and rewarding) profession with more constraints than flexibility…and we need help.

💙Our first ROAR Referral of the year - our positive phone calls home for students. Just look at that smile…proud student, proud parent, proud teacher, proud family liaison (helping us make the call) & proud principal. 💛

35% of Ts say they will quit in next 2 years. 44% of Ts say they are burned out. 55% of Ts say they plan to leave education sooner than anticipated (@weareteachers). 100% of these coaches are dedicated to lowering these numbers through their leadership and knowledge. #GBCoaches

Parents are often our first teachers, guiding us through life & starting us on our educational path.

Thank you, parents, for all that you in & out of the classroom to support your childrens’ learning, growth, & success.
