A Long First Day
A quick reflection on what's it like to start a school year in Portland Public Schools
Concluding a long first day back
After a
Summer that feels too short but still good.
After a
A practice school year where it felt like learning to teach again. Learning to a be a school again.
I start this year with more calm and more overwhelm.
I know I will plan and will not feel prepared but be ready. It's dynamic and perhaps, in my mind, the school year crashes and tows as oceans do.
No matter how well I surf, I'll end up in the water.
Released today our systems work episode. Great topic for the beginning of the year. Check it out apple podcast, spotify, and anywhere you get your podcast.
We are nearing the end of season 1 with I believe 3 more episodes remain.
Two more asks:
Share worthworkpodcast.substack.com with a friend who would enjoy it.
Share thoughts in the comments or reply with what would make season 2 worth making.
Genius over doubt,
