Short-staffed days happen - and they don’t have to feel like total chaos. In this episode of The Autism Helper Podcast, we’re talking all about Man-Down Schedules: how to create a realistic, flexible schedule for those “all hands are not on deck” days so you can still support students and protect staff sanity. We’ll walk through ways to rework groups, build in additional break time, and prioritize what really needs to happen so you feel prepared instead of reactive when staffing is tight. This episode is all about planning ahead to reduce stress, maintain consistency, and keep classrooms running smoothly - even when the plan changes.
