Get ready to party with the Teachers Off Duty podcast crew and former teacher turned national advocate for educational justice, Dr. Deonna Smith! This week we are sharing our best, saddest, and most outrageous stories from school birthday parties. From backpack-based cake disasters to uninvited guests, we have seen it all - and are not afraid to spill the beans. But birthday’s aren’t all fun and games – so we also discuss how to handle situations where students can't celebrate or feel left out. If you're looking for a laugh and some expert advice on managing school birthday celebrations, this episode is for you. What do you say we get this party started?
