13 Reminders for When School Ends & Summer Begins
Dear Kids,
It’s almost the end of June. Report cards are probably already done. And then school ends. You survived another school year. You’ll be saying goodbye to friends and teachers, and enjoying Fun Fairs and Play Days to mark the end of the year.
You did it.
You made it through another another school year and you can put your books and pencils away for a few months. As school officially ends and summer begins, here are a few things I’d like you to remember:
13 Reminders for When School Ends & Summer Begins:
- You did your best. Don’t worry about your grades.
- I tried my best, too. Getting you guys out the door every day is not easy.
- Remember to read a little. Yes, it’s summer, but I still care about your brains.
- Your bed is not going to make itself. (And your mom isn’t going to make it, either).
- I don’t particularly want to listen to the history of spiders while I’m trying to work, but I will because I’m proud of your willingness to keep learning.
- I’m amazed at your resilience.
- Come home when the streetlights come on.
- Write your teacher a nice note. They deserve it.
- Help yourself to another popsicle. You deserve it.
- You can’t control what happens in September, but you can try to control how you look at the circumstances you’re given.
- Yes, you can stay up a bit later than usual.
- Please take a shower every now and again.
- I love you.
