The Grammarist notes that “hindsight is 20/20 is usually said in answer to an admonishment that [someone] should have known something would happen”, or that we might/could/should have made different decisions earlier on. In hindsight, 2020 has been one tumultuous year! Along with the first US COVID case here in WA last January, we have experienced social, political, economic, and, often, personal disruption during the entirety of 2020.

2020 is quickly winding down. It’s time to allow ourselves time for some much-needed self-care. During all the quarantined hustle and bustle, as you prepare for the holiday season and for 2021, take a deep breath. Look back. Reflect.

  • What is working well during the pandemic?
  • What have we learned?
  • How did you and your staff support one another during this challenging year?
  • Who are your community partners and how are you working well together?
  • How are your students and their families faring?
  • What do you most need as you move forward?

     

    Thank you very much for all that you have done to get your staff, students, families and partners through 2020.

    Relax. Enjoy your own families – as much as possible - during this holiday season.

    See you all again in 2021!

    Happy Holidays,

    Mike
