MizFidd<p>One of my students, after eight months in my classroom, opened up to me about her depression as well as her trauma from the cult church her family was in for much of her life. </p><p>It was an intense hour of just sitting and talking with her. I gave her information on free counseling and support for teens in domestic crisis, but other than that, I just listened. I'm hoping I did some good.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/teaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>teaching</span></a></p>

MizFidd<p>Today is a nightmare. Five people are out at one of our school locations, so I'm trying to cover for two of them. The morning started with a locked building.
