Teachers are ramping up as the school year kicks into full gear in the second six weeks. Teachers are dealing with stressed-out students, nervous parents, demanding administrators, COVID and, you know, a personal life. Students have homework ramping up, some are dealing with college application season, and most students have to deal with wearing face masks, closed-toe shoes instead of summer flipflops. The first semester of school is always busy, and stressful, for all involved. Take a deep breath and relax, Christmas is only three months away.
