Hey, I've got a full class set (30 copies) of the amazing new book Dragon Force: Infinity’s Secret by @kevtsang and @kwebberwrites to give away for FREE. A whole class set, no catch.

Teacher: I feel so exhausted all the time.
Central Office: Have you tried yoga or running or meditation.
Let’s stop telling teachers to do yoga and meditate (UNLESS that’s what they want and choose to do).

Pray for consistent, sleep, joy, and patience.
For real.
