Summer is just around the corner. Hopefully, you’re dreaming of long days spent out in the sun.
And if you’re a teacher, I sincerely hope you’re planning a big fat break with some much-needed R&R. I remember how valuable these months were to restore the soul. And if I had any hope of returning to the classroom in the fall, I had to make sure most of this time was actually spent pursuing my non-work hobbies.
I also know the value and the urge to use summer break as a time to take care of school tasks that are important, but less urgent. Goodness knows they can’t all get done during the 9-month 10-month school year.
So today’s post is a little gift to you entrepreneur teachers out there. Yes, I’m talking to you, you break-the-mold-and-start-your-own-school teacher. You work-extra-hard-to-provide-a-better-model-of-education-than-traditional teacher. You wear even more caps than the traditional teacher (and that’s a lot).
If you find yourself just dying to do something for your school during this break from the school year, may I suggest: blogging?
If we’re being honest, this is something that’s just not gonna happen during the school year. BUT. The summer could be a great time to put together a solid lineup of valuable content for eager readers in your school’s community.
Schedule them out for the school year, and you’ll be building long-term relationships with your families and potential families even when you’re back working hard with students from August through May.
By using these pre-structured blog posts, you’ll have a year of:
- Increased traffic to your school website
- Better ranking for your school on the Google
- Communicate clearly and easily with your school families and community
- A convenient way to “educate” adults about your school’s philosophy
- Nurture the relationship between your school and your community
