Our HR department has extended an invitation to us to spruce up our work spaces at 3 this afternoon. Cleaning supplies and snacks are being provided. I’m pumped! A clean office and snacks—whatta day! And it’s Friday…

Teacher Talk
Do you read “Teacher Talk”? I do! It’s a super fun and informative read. If you haven’t read “Teacher Talk,” it’s time you started. Simply turn to page 60 or 61 in your latest issue of The Mailbox magazine. If you subscribe to the Preschool edition of The Mailbox magazine, you’ll read about preschool teachers…
Fun Fall Festival Photos
Yesterday’s Fall Festival extravaganza was a success. As promised, here are a few photos for you to enjoy. Costumes ranged from a nutty dentist to a zookeeper to a frustrated accountant (with a fake knife through her noggin). There were plenty of super cool pumpkin carvings, lots of treats, a few tricks, and a super…

Favorite Sports Team Day

I’m wondering what tips you have for easing in and out of dismissal on that first day of school. Sure, school situations and classrooms vary, yet I’m guessing most teachers face similar concerns. Who is authorized to pick up whom? Which students are permitted to walk home? Which kids are in afterschool programs? Are bus…
More Photos!
Here’s another peek at your buddies from The Mailbox! Every year, employees at The Mailbox are recognized and appreciated for their dedication, hard work, and loyalty to the company.

Sneak a Peek at 2011
Last week, I promised to share with y’all some photos from the past year at The Mailbox. It’s a merry mix of occasions. Okay, maybe flu shot day was more memorable than merry. But as you can see, it’s pretty easy to wear a smile around here! And let me note, for the record, that…
