summer begins sun sets at its latest i mourn classrooms students will never know filled with freedoms that existed at the beginning of my tenure Be careful longing for the past / you'll miss the present today will be tomorrow 's good old days right? But don't our students deserve classrooms that aren't pawns in political polarization Kyleen Beers reminds us kids still can't read need our best selves --the teacher they need is not always the teacher we want to be in our classrooms anything is possible

Ack, I feel your words! It is a hard time in education for sure. It sounds like you are trying to “balance” it all. May the summer give you time and space to go forth again to do what you know is best.
Especially when I retired at the end of 2022, I looked back at the “Golden Memories.” My first years teaching were so different from the last years. There were still great moments, but there were so many more stressful days…loss of freedom and choice.
