The Principal's POV on...Staying Grounded!
We all have a "full plate" of tasks that keep us busy, and there never seems to be enough hours in the day to get it all done (am I right?!). Whether its school meetings, phone calls or an endless supply of emails, a Principal could easily spend their day locked-up in the office. However, this isn't fulfilling and it's certainly not why we became educators to begin with! So how does one find a balance? How does one stay grounded?
For me, it's the time I get to spend with students and seeing all the progress they make. Whether it's my daily Check-in Team (pictured above), my weekly Book Buddies Group, Birthday Selfies or our Bulldog Buddy Winners...this is what puts a smile on my face and keeps me going when things get tough! That's why I make these moments a priority each and every day...no matter what!
As #BullockES continues our focus on #EverydaySEL & mindfulness, I challenge you to to find what grounds you and run with it! This could mean engaging in a specific daily routine, having an item to focus on, or even just taking the time to breathe. After all, if we're not grounded then how we can help our students? Thank you for a fantastic week & don't forget to share your grounding techniques via email, social media or during a Chat & Chew!
