Going the extra mile

Hey all – sorry it’s been 2 weeks since my last post – spring break then a week of getting back into the grove
So, our jobs are crazy! We as educators do not have a “normal” gig. In reality we have about 1 – 2 hours in our days to complete work that other professions take 5-6 hours to complete. Teachers are amazing professionals – we work all day long as mentors, lawyers, leaders, managers, writers, reflectors, philosophers, communicators, economists, psychologists…name it we do it! (except for maybe surgeons...) Where do we then find avenues and time to go beyond our contracted obligations – truly teachers are without a doubt within the top 3 of the greatest time managers in the professional world.
What are some things that you do around your school to go beyond your role as teacher?
