Similar journey. 🎉
I started out as a middle school special education teacher and am on my 8th year (it’s my second career after retiring from the military). I love my job (except for the soul crushing paperwork such as ARDs, data collection, progress reports, and documentation) but I will stay SPED till I’m dead! I feel like I make the most difference here.

The “I feel so passionate about what I'm doing but also emotionally and mentally exhausted and tapped out” is so real.

🥹 It was hard for me to accept that I could feel all those things at the same time. I always thought that if I was feeling burnt out then that meant I didn’t love my job anymore but I’ve come to realize that we can hold all those emotions at the same time and that doesn’t make us any less passionate or good at teaching. Hang in there! Sending you love ❤️🫶🏼
I have a lot of respect for special ed teachers I was in special in my whole school career
