Christmas break, when do you start yours?

Published

Good morning!

My Christmas break begins on December 18th and I cannot wait!! I return back to school on January 2nd. That and the gender reveal party (I'm 5 months pregnant) that I'm throwing on Saturday is what is going to get me through this work week.

When do you guys/gals go on break? What do you do during the break to occupy your days? Started this job back in September and it is my first school nurse position so I haven't had the luxury of getting two weeks off paid and it not be PTO because I was going on vacation lol

I'm still here! Saw more than 50 yesterday on our short day which is a lot :lurking: but I am so ready for break that I didn't even realize how many until the day was already over!

Fingers crossed for all of us who are still around that Friday will come quickly and end smoothly :up:

Enjoy!

The bell rings at 3:30, I'm supposed to stay until 4. I may slip out early. I really hope none of the kids decided that they need to do anything silly that afternoon. My patience is fried this week.

Me! 2.5 hours left today... tomorrow is allegedly a full day but the nurses' meeting/holiday party starts around 1230 and I'm almost certain we will be released early. The students have a 3 hour day tomorrow (useless). Thank goodness my kids are old enough to head home after school and I don't have to arrange child care to be there for them until I get off.

One more sleep.....

I think of in terms of one more WAKE UP! That's the hard part for me!

Tomarrow at 2pm we are dismissed and I can't wait!!!! It's a fun day/party day, so should be slow in here too. And lots of goodies passed around to munch on!
