It’s finally time for teachers to take a load off. It seems like this semester has been rough for everyone, and every teacher who taught this fall needs a well-deserved break to catch up on their sleep. So many people give teachers crap about having a summer and a winter break. They think that because their office job is all year long, they must work harder than anyone who gets a considerable period of time off. What those people don’t know is that teachers have to spend a lot of their breaks getting ready for the next semester or wrapping up grades from the last. Final exam scores don’t grow on trees, and a teacher’s work is never fully done. 

Even if you have to work over the break, you still deserve a chance to put your feet up. Self-care looks like many different things, including, but not limited to, scrolling through some teacher memes!
