I've slept in for 2 DAYS STRAIGHT!!!! Hello summer break - I'm a happy girl (well, at least for a couple weeks until the summer jobs kick in). I've been busy tackling some projects around the house I've been meaning to get to since about {forever ago} which also feels great.
Before school got out, however, I was in a frantic state trying to acknowledge all those awesome folks who make my job a million times easier. Besides my fabulous 8th grade TA's (see their card here) I wanted to give a huge shout out to a few other amazing people too. I did a variation of the TA card for my awesome custodians:
I also made several thank you's for the awesome teachers and awesome volunteer Mom's who helped me run our character building program this year:
I just printed our logo onto cardstock (designed by our student's with the help of a volunteer graphic designer), added some washi and bling, piece-o-cake!
Finally, I made some personalized stationary card sets for our fabulous office staff:
Again, I kept it REALLY EASY {thank you washi tape} so it didn't take me too long, but yes, I've appreciated the extra sleep these past couple days :)
For all my friends still teaching - I do feel your pain. I've felt it all year long when you got that extra few days at Thanksgiving or that extra Spring Break week or those snow days. It's all a wash in the end right? A break from the norm at any time of the year is appreciated. I wish you a speedy race to the end and students who take mercy on you in your fragile-almost-summer state.
Glad you are sleeping in! Such CAS (Cute and Simple teehee) cards! I'm sure you are enjoying the welcome break and having fun doing some of your house projects!
