it’s hard to believe, but we’re approaching the three-year anniversary of the covid-19 shutdown in our schools. we’ve all been through a great deal of disturbance over these past three years. one of my coworkers recently shared this article on the hidden toll of “microstress” and it resonated with me. in my work with community members across the country (teachers, staff, families, school and district leaders), i’m finding that people are tired. i have a 2 year old y’all -- i’m really tired. on any given day, change is hard. right now, it’s really hard.
