2. Clean your desk. You deserve to come back to a neat, clean and organized work station. You will set the tone for the new year.
3. Turn your email to “Out of Office” . You are on break. Do not be answering emails to parents. Take this time to spend it with your family making memories.
4. Do not take work home. I repeat. DO NOT TAKE WORK HOME!!!! This is your break too. Enjoy it. If grades are due when you come back, make it know you are finishing before you leave. You will not be accepting or grading anything during the holidays. Turn them in and don’t look back.
5. Throw out all food. You do not want to come back to little visitors. Once a student hid a milk behind a shelf. It was disgusting.
6. Finally! Enjoy your break. Come back ready for a new beginning. You will wipe the slate clean and love all your little angels as if they weren’t unruly goblins before you left.
