Self Care Reminder
Here are a few other tips to keep in mind as our busy season continues:
- Prioritize - You can't do it all. Decide what's most important and start there.
- Ask for help - Reach out to colleagues, including our Ed Services team, for support! Delegate to staff members looking for additional leadership opportunities where you can.
- Make time for you - Whether it is exercise, family time, meditation, reading, happy hour, or anything else that is fun for you, make time for it!
- Breathe - Remember to stop and breathe. Find your feet.
- Love - Know that you are loved and appreciated. Share your love and appreciation with others. It feels just as good to write one of those appreciation cards as it does to receive one.
CELEBRATIONS & GRATITUDE!
KUDOS
* Chris - Thank you to you and your 4th grade team of teachers and students for a great presentation at last week's Board meeting. Your students were articulate, passionate, and empowered. And the best part was that you and the teachers turned the decision-making over to them - they decided what they wanted to share!
* Andree (along with Tim and a colleague Ryder) - Congratulations on a great presentation at AASA last week all about the EUSD green initiatives!
* The Farm Lab team - If you haven't been to Farm Lab in awhile, you have no idea how hard the entire team, including our new farmers, have been working! There is more food growing than ever before, new seating for students, the new R & D rooms are up and running, and Salad Wars are going amazingly well this season. Thank you to Julie, Anne, Tami, Melanie, Cody, Cathryn, and Brandon!
