  • Realities of a Teacher

    We've got a lot to talk about today, it's mostly in the title. We go into what teachers deal with both inside the classroom and out. We talk time, money, mental health, positives and the negatives of doing what we do. We love out job! But we'd love to change some things haha.

  • Student and Athlete Mental Health

    We've got a great one for you guys. It's a topic we've been needing to discuss but really wanted to wait until we had some experts in the house. Today, Michael Morgan and Mark Wilkes join us. They are licensed marriage and family therapists from Momentum Counseling Services, just down the road in Sandy, who both see a lot of athletes and have a ton of great info and advice for us.

    In the classroom we see a lot of anxiety, depression, ADHD, and even deal with it ourselves. So what better way to tackle the topic than to bring in a couple of experts with over 20 years combined experience. We also go into some sports psychology and a little bit of what athletes go through. And of course, "making the grade" movie edition. Enjoy!

  • Protesting During High School

    With a lot of schools in the news recently for the anti Ice protests and walk outs, we wanted to cover the topic. It's always a sensitive one when it comes to schools, teachers and politics so we are going to attempt to do this strictly from a teachers perspective. Just our thoughts, we could always be wrong haha. And we don't represent any particular school policy.
