The Teacher Reboot Retreat
Saturday, July 27, 10 a.m.-2p.m.
One thing that is often overlooked is the importance of teacher-care and positive mental health. This workshop is designed to focus on ways to combat stress and depression in the workplace, overcoming trauma in the school setting and managing time for self-care and rejuvenation. Teachers will experience powerful workshop sessions that are engaging, interactive and packed with fun. This workshop is not about students, curriculum or state testing; it is about being a happy and balance teacher to create results in the classroom that transform students academically and personally. And, yes, it's FREE! (100 slots available)
