The words called so far are highlighted, to check a winning card.
“Give me 5 minutes.” (It will not be 5 minutes.)
“I’m here until my legs give out” energy
“We do this for the kids.”
Checks the clock more often than they’d like to admit
Could win a dance-off at a school event
Gets greeted by students everywhere they go
Handles chaos like it’s just another Tuesday
Has “the look” that instantly stops behavior
Has a mysterious key that opens everything
Has a playlist ready for any mood
Has said “It’s been a day…” before noon
Has saved the day more times than anyone knows
Has seen everything and is no longer surprised
Has the calmest voice in stressful situations
Has worked here longer than most buildings have existed (or so it seems)
Keeps the school running without recognition
Knows all the Gen Z lingo
Knows every sibling cousin and backstory
Knows where things are before you even finish asking
Knows which meetings could have been an email
Remembers “how we used to do it”
Says “quick question” and it’s never quick
Secretly (or not secretly) competitive
Still has the same enthusiasm as year one
Would likely say “That’s above my pay grade.”
