Today’s Tip: Take the Tech Challenge
A Google search for the benefits of taking a vacation from tech turns up 1.5 billion results. The research is clear:

So, take the challenge. When you leave school for a vacation this month or next, disengage from technology. Set your email and cell phone to provide an automated response so others know you are literally on vacation and won’t see messages until you return.
This can be rejuvenating and freeing. Give it a try? If so, you might start scheduling time each day for the 2022-23 school year where you take a tech break. SAM leaders who do so report being far more sensitive to others, better listeners, happier and able to better focus.
