Summer Break is well upon us, so in this episode, we're diving headfirst into a pool of freedom, and resurfacing with hilarious tales from our sun-drenched (or not-so-sun-drenched) summer escapades. We kick off with what teachers REALLY do during the summer - yes, there's more to us than lesson plans and report cards. We share all teachers’ unanimous need for a break. Tell talks about the apparent difficulty of juggling parenting and teaching. Shout out to teachers who are also parents! Meanwhile, Gabe and Lauran put their summer fitness goals under the microscope, or should we say, 'under the ice cream scoop'? Ever wondered what we did during the summers before we became the cool teachers you know and love? We reminisce about our worst summer jobs. Get ready for tales of spicy chicken wings, cleaning other people's mess, a summer of... kidney stones (whoa, Tell!), and a fling with phlebotomy that didn’t end famously. We wrap up the episode with a debate on summer PD and training in our segment, 'Good or Garbage'. So kick back, pop open a cold (name your favorite summer-time beverage), and get ready for a dose of fun, sun, and a fair share of 'we-can't-believe-that-happened'.
