Are your teachers developing a case of the midyear blues? If so, why not reassure them that summer is just around the corner? And while you’re at it, remind them that they have one of the most exciting jobs out there. OK, maybe “exciting” isn’t the word your teachers would have chosen, but once you show them these educator-only summer trips, they may change their minds. Best of all, they’re likely to come back in the fall with a slew of new professional development credits—not to mention some truly exciting lesson plans.
