Here’s what teachers don’t need on their first day back
Chirpy icebreaker activities. Special guest performers to pep up the staff. Free teacher appreciation golf shirts, coffee cups, or memo pads. Spirit rallies to get excited about raising test scores this year. Or the pretense that everything is now completely normal.
As they head back, teachers are looking for support and safety in their workplace. Teachers need serious answers for serious concerns. They need some confidence that administration will hear what staff has to say. They need to believe that administration is worried about education and safety more than about optics and PR. They need more time in their classrooms, and less in meetings.
Teachers face some unique challenges this fall, and the landscape will look different for every local district. Teachers need to know that they have a team backing them up, and that that team is serious about facing the challenges of this year. They don’t need happy talk or empty promises or useless threats.
