There are many things that teachers don’t miss during their summer vacation. As a K-2 teacher, days can often be filled with unexpected and unpleasant events. Stepping away from all those tiny annoying things that can drive you crazy is very necessary. That’s why teachers NEED summer vacation!

I hope that you have enjoyed your vacation away from school. Have a great year!
