Prioritize Your Health
“When women take care of their health, they become their best friend.”
~Maya Angelou
It’s all about your health, raising awareness, and encouraging teachers near and far to listen to their bodies. Stop worrying about taking a day off during the school year and make your appointment. I realize finding a substitute isn’t easy especially during the pandemic. However, this is not your problem to solve. Your health is the priority! Here are the March and April 2021 Health Observances.

I firmly believe building awareness and early detection really saves lives. The practice of ignoring health matters is prevalent in the teaching profession. May you be informed and take action. You matter!
Dare 2 Be Well!
