    My mistake was over extending myself to joining one too many committees before or after school.

    Going in without a summer of self care (aka time off of work)... I came in burnt out and not in a good place. Still paying for that.

    Well this was my 2nd year...I swnt out a SURVEY (because of teachers concers of being backed up on work) about how the felt about a "teachers' work day" where they can actually catch up on. Well, admin (not all) did not appreciate me not asking permission. They felt it was a conflict with PDs previously scheduled (yes, the SURVEY). My plan was to bring this to the leadership huddle and compile the response to another survey, "teacher check-in." Principal also stated it was lack of communication, and they could have added to it. I stated to them that teachers would come to me with concerns that they would not address to them. I think I have an equal number of visits from teachers and students this year, and this is why I sent the surveys. I thought it would help with addressing some projected setbacks. I stood my ground respectfully and will just ask permission to send out surveys, I guess.
    Oh, after I sent out the check in the following week, they sent a clumate survey

      Unfortunately I’ve been there where I tried to do something with good intentions. I’ve learned to just always communicate anything I do beforehand 😊

    Can you tell me more about how as a school counselor that you were planning to help with small groups on non SEL or ASCA Mindset and Behavior Standards?

      This was during my first year so I wasn’t reviewing ASCA standards. 😅😂

      @counselingwithmrb the concepts seem so easy in school, but when you are tasked with implementation and all the other things they try to strap us with, it gets hard!
