TOSA Corner: As we are getting to the time of year where we are all getting tired, I remembered an article from 2013 that has stuck with me ever since. It has been kind of my motto ever since. I should have shared it in the beginning of the school year because we have so many new teachers, but better late than never. It’s even a great reminder for those of us who have been around a long time. Everyone, please take 5 minutes to read it. Find Your Marigold
