Happy summer vacation! You were probably much happier about summer a month ago when the whole thing was still ahead of you. Right now, it feels like August is creeping up on us, and there's nothing we can do about it. Even if teachers aren't back teaching just yet, there's still so much prep to be done with setting up your classroom, figuring out lesson plans, and doing whatever wild icebreaker admin has thought up this year. For a job with allegedly so much time off, teachers spend a great deal of it stressing about what's to come.
If you're in that position, at least you're not completely alone. When I was a kid, I spent all of August excitedly fretting about the upcoming school year. No matter how anxious you are about 2024-2025, I'm sure there's someone in your class who's just as nervous about it as you are. If you feel two ways about September, these teacher memes are for you.
