re: Ok teachers, what are you least looking forward to this year?

This is year 17 for me. I’m as excited as I’ve ever been to have students tomorrow. My goal this year is to actually slow down. Spend more time talking about life, effort, treating others and themselves with proper respect.
If I can mix this in I’m hoping to connect better, and get more effort when it’s needed. The last few years I’ve felt rushed to make up the gap left from Covid on our students.

Covid caused lots of teachers to quit/ retire and is one of the reasons for the teacher shortage.
Good luck teachers. Hope you have a great and safe year.

Good luck and I hope you have a great year and that your new approach will be successful.
As for Covid, I think educators use that as an excuse for why scores are low, but I don't agree with that. Scores are low because we have been passing kids through the system for years and it's not going to change anytime soon. I have students that do absolutely nothing and fail my class and they bump them up anyway. It used to bother me, but I've come to realize that I did my part and if the administrators want to pass that student, that's on them.
