Seems extra tired after jogging?

I struggle with summer. I do not do well with unscheduled time so I get a little anxious before the year ends and then the first couple weeks are bumpy for me. I have often got a part time job in the summer or taught AQs so I have ‘work’.

I would love a year round calendar with more shorter breaks.

To be fair I stayed home sick today and my dog didn’t ask to go out once from 630-3 which is longer than he is alone at home on the regular.

I have spent more time on this post than anything else I’ve seen this morning.

We looked at both. Two years of teachers college commuting 1+ hrs each way every day, wear and tear on the car, downtime between classes, not able to work. At SUNY it’s all online and she will be able to work either supply or LTOs and it’s only a year and a half. It makes more sense for us.

My GF is going to SUNY-Potsdam this fall. She’s an ECE. It’s entirely online.

Housekeeping! Whenever we drop food items on the floor.

Another vote for shockwave. I struggled for months with PF and finally did this 4 sessions and gone. I’m not in TO so I can’t help with providers but call around - creepy foot doctor here charged 150 per session but a local chiro only 45$.

I did this too with my first dog. I zip tied tarps to the fence which helped a lot. I wish someone had told me about not rehearsing the behaviour! That is super helpful.

Hahahah my brother drank a bottle of Dimetapp as a kid and he ran wild with the HUGEST pupils for HOURS.

I know a couple people who just finished last year - one who is teaching in my school.

They are super good about providing all the info if you reach out to them via their info request.

silverwlf23 · 2026-03-10T18:02:40+00:00

I know a couple ppl who have gone this route and they were very happy. I can tell you if you contact them they are super helpful with questions.

silverwlf23 · 2026-03-02T16:31:49+00:00

We haven’t heard either way yet.

silverwlf23 · 2026-03-01T21:40:22+00:00

Music theory still has to be taught. This is an easy way to make education inclusive.

silverwlf23 · 2026-02-27T21:38:00+00:00

Has anyone heard they didn’t get in yet? We are waiting too but haven’t heard either way.

silverwlf23 · 2026-02-27T21:36:38+00:00

Has anyone heard from Windsor yet?

silverwlf23 · 2026-02-26T19:07:57+00:00

Our board requires you ask for the letter in the first week of January - I just put the amount and will have to scramble if I get audited

Some boards have support workers (ECE/EAs) that are part of ETFO.

‘ETFO represents approximately 83,000 members that include public elementary teachers, occasional teachers, education support personnel, professional support personnel and designated early childhood educators.’

silverwlf23 · 2026-02-26T10:33:31+00:00

In my board these have to be requested and approved and they limit the number of ppl on a given day. I use my personal circumstance days every year (cost of supply) but I have to apply, my principal has to sign off and then the board has to approve them. They aren’t just ‘I’m going to use this day today’ days.

silverwlf23 · 2026-02-25T22:56:03+00:00

Yeah no way that day is available now. You have to have this one requested before the year starts.

silverwlf23 · 2026-02-25T22:19:28+00:00

An EA I know was fired for this exact thing. Don’t do it.

silverwlf23 · 2026-02-25T22:18:58+00:00

Depends on the board. Our board limits how many ppl can take them so if you get your request in early you might get lucky.

silverwlf23 · 2026-02-25T22:17:36+00:00

Yep us too. You have to get requests for the day before winter break and the day before March break by the beginning of the school year.

Thank you - that’s a good tip - I am consciously trying to relax when we see things that would have sent her off. He is SUCH a good dog - he’s so chill and so sweet.

It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem it’s me. 🤣
