Danielle Sullivan, an i-Ready team member, shared a thoughtful way to thank teachers and other school staff for their hard work during such a challenging time. Sullivan explained that in this unprecedented back-to-school season, you are being asked to do many things, keep moving forward, and do right by your students. It's good to remind yourself that it's OK for you to take care of yourself in the process! Give yourself a permission slip as a reminder that you matter just as much as the people you are taking care of. So please, print this out, display it where you need to see it, and give yourself permission. Consider printing this permission slip out and sending it virtually to your colleagues as a reminder to take care of themselves, too!
