At the start of the school year, everything feels fresh. Students are eager, polite, and full of curiosity. But as the weeks go on, that initial sparkle can begin to fade. Routines get tested, boundaries are pushed, and the excitement starts to wear off. For most teachers, this transition tends to happen in September, when reality starts to set in.

That’s why I’m launching a brand-new series called the September Survival Series. Over the next three episodes, you’ll get practical tools and strategies to help you navigate this first big month of school with confidence. In this first episode, I’m diving into how to reset your classroom routines without starting over. You’ll learn how to do it in a way that’s calm, consistent, and reinforces your authority.
