Dear Parents, we're tired too.
This is a frustrating time for everyone. We are in a pandemic and no one knows how long things will be the way they are. Temperature checks at the door, curbside child drop off/pick up, always wearing a N-95 mask for staff while parents and school-aged students have to wear some sort of face covering, being strict with symptoms and illness. This is all part of our new normal for God knows how long.

Back to School??
So many of us, educators and parents alike, were hoping for a “normal” return to school this fall. Many of us were likely even expecting our routines and practices to return to the pre-covid-19 pace. With new covid-19 variants, however, we seem to be again looking at a fall of uncertainty. As educators, how do we approach such a school year?

Honoring Rage as the Sacred Teacher that It Is
When I started my teaching profession as a preservice teacher in 2013 I didn’t know how I would cope through my moon cycles once I started teaching full time. I mean, teachers barely get time for quick pee breaks. So I decided to get a Nexplanon birth control implanted in my arm. I went without my moon cycles for the entirety of my teaching career and decided to get it removed in 2020. It was physically and spiritually excruciating to become reacquainted with my moon cycles. But in this year and a half of remembering my moon cycle flow, I have learned that my moon time is such a powerful time for intentional introspection and healing. My womb brings up random unprocessed emotions to be felt, honored, released, healed, and integrated. So this past moon cycle a lot of sadness and sorrow came up because my Roses babies were on my heart. Rage was on my heart. My babies’ rage was on my heart. I hella wept for them.

How to Give Teachers Time
Nothing ruins a classroom climate like a stressed out teacher. Harried, rushed and worried feelings are absorbed by all of the little minds surrounding the adult. Behavior and learning problems naturally result, stressing out the teacher and students in ever perpetuating downward spirals. Allowing teachers to feel less rushed in their day is something that can change a school culture and increase teacher retention.

As a Coach, how to shift people out of fears and doubt?
Coaching, in the world of crisis… People hold stories in their minds as if they are true. Holding onto these rigid thinking patterns is what makes people not think or do things outside the norm. And, this is why people need coaches. This is why Coaches need to coach.

For Teachers Heading back to the Classroom
I'm writing to you teachers heading back to the school house next month (August) because I care about you. Maybe you already have your routine down and you're not planning on changing anything. Good for you, if that works and you're comfortable. However, if you're a teacher still looking for a way to make things "better" for you and the students, I have some ideas to share with you.
