This is the effect you have on students!
With all of the additional stressors of this year, it may be sometimes difficult to remember why we do this. Thank you Lissy for sharing the Article: "How to Beat the October Blues and Regain your Enthusiasm for Teaching". One of the strategies mentioned in the article is to focus on the positive. Sometimes that is hard, but hopefully, you save the positive kudos from students, parents, admin. Now is a great time to go back through those. Reread them and remember that you earned that praise because you are great at your job. Never forget what you have navigated in the last 20 months, personally, and professionally.
We will be reinstituting Faculty SOAR feathers. Once we get a number of submissions, I will pick one a day to read on the announcements. Let's celebrate each other and continue to add to the volumes of Kudos you already have. Thank you for all you do and thank you for hanging in there and not quitting!
