Three Weeks In

Hello, Beautiful People!

It has been a minute, but I am pleased to report that we are in the sixteenth day of in-person learning! It is a really big deal. I know that it is risky and that people are afraid, but it so wonderful to see half-faces of the kids and colleagues from whom I get so much energy!

Folks are stretched so tautly because of stress…they are brittle with it. I just want to celebrate the steps we have taken and the fact that we are together again. I feel like a garden hose that has been crimped for eighteen months and is now free to flow again.

I want folks to be careful, of course I do. I am wiping down desks and spraying Lysol everywhere, and even if it is just bailing with a teaspoon, I don’t care. I want us to stay in school as long as we possibly can. Sixteen down, one-hundred-sixty-four to go!
