Self-care is how you get your power back. From aspiring to retiring School Leadership matters Are there systems set up that allow you to leave? Can you schedule an in-person event and not feel guilty. Distributive leadership Saddened when people can’t go There’s no “coverage for my building” so I can’t go. Learning is a part of our job.
