Starting With Intention: Getting Ready in Every Way That Matters
Every August, the same thought creeps in: Am I actually ready for this? Maybe you’ve got curriculum ordered. Maybe your school space is a Pinterest board and nothing else — yet. Here’s what years of Augusts have taught me: being ready isn’t really about the curriculum. It’s about something bigger.
