Day 15: Alert ! New Students

Most years, a student might move and leave  class. But this is not most years.  Remote learning is not ideal so students come in and out frequently.  Blended isn't working, they join.  Remote is not working, they leave.  Childcare is hard, they leave.  Someone is quarantined, they join.  Now, the classes in school are full. So no changes, right? No way. Today two new students arrived.  They were absolutely lovely.  They were fun!  But these changes have been hard.  I've gotten in the habit of checking my email frequently, almost obsessively, so I'm not caught off guard. That's happened five minutes before school another change. Sunday night, change.  And I know everyone is feeling it but that doesn't make it better.   Today we ended with some kind words.   What was the best part of your  day? Meeting my new friends!  So in the end... it didn't matter.  All of my anxiety washed away for today....
