I loved this! They should allow teacher's plenty of time to set up their classrooms. It's a huge undertaking! 😂 They should be allowed in a week before kids arrive for their first day. Most teachers are coping with having to shop and organize for their own kids, too! Only having sometimes 2 days to set up their classrooms, it's rediculous! 😂
Yeah- 2 days to set up a welcoming environment for the students and plan for the year isn’t enough especially when those 2 days are full of professional development.
I LOVE an organized classroom, but it takes me longer to do than others. Considering that there are 72 million meetings and tasks delegated when we’re back, I need that early entrance to be ready! The struggle is real!
This is so true! When I tell my middle school and high school teacher friends that I go in the week before school starts to set up and decorate my classroom-they laugh at me! But I do it for the kids- they need to feel welcomed and they always say they love coming to school the first day to such a colorful and inviting environment-😊
I was lucky to move into my room since I am transferring schools. However summer school is going on. Plus floors need to get waxed so I'll be back on Aug 5th..
Yes!!! Many teachers at our school go in early. However, the classrooms are all getting painted this year and not all are ready for us. I'm having to wait. 😕
Question, and pardon my ignorance!! But if you're staying in the same classroom, why are you required to pack up your room every summer? Y'all have enough on your plates lol
Yes, summer deep cleaning by the janitorial staff, plus if they decide to move you ( which was usually a last minute decision, made about 3 days before teachers are due back!), it's easier to move all your things.
Because depending on classroom size and number of students, this sometimes can change! So every year you pack up your room. In the fall, you redecorate. You'd have to decorate for your new year anyway. Calenders and things all would have changed. There are really great teachers out there who want to have an inviting atmosphere for their kids and go to great lengths to ensure that their new students' names are displayed and the new schedual and calenders are posted as well as all the creative touches. The opposite is teachers that really don't care and think it's distracting to kids to have these touches. Their rooms are stark and pretty bleak. These were the teachers I personally disliked! 😂😂😂
Not everywhere operates this way. I don't have to pack up for summer, and I'm allowed in the building basically whenever I want anyway. I refuse to go in during breaks to work for free, but I technically could if I needed to.
I was confused because when you were packing up back in May, you said "I'm due back here the 17th of July." But because you snuck in we got this great video and you got BBQ 😂
Our school is closed for building work over the whole summer. I normally set up first 3 days then don’t go in till September. This will definitely be me. I’m moving classrooms as well. I’m all packed like I’m moving house.
We can get in as soon as they finish cleaning. If we do 3 days in the summer…then we don’t have to work our 3 teacher workdays during the school year! We all begging them to clean faster so we can do our 3 days so we get a long weekend in October, get an extra day of winter break, and an extra day at spring break!
In Olympia, Washington, they start on the Wednesday after Labor Day (4th of September this year) and get out in mid-June (just the same as when I was a kid there 40 years ago, and the same as when Iwas in elementary school in Pearl City, Hawaii).
It varies from state to state, and district to district. The school year is at least 180 days, and summer break is typically about 10 weeks long. In Washington and Hawaii, I experienced starting in early September (Wednesday after Labor Day, so between 3rd & 9th inclusive) and ending in mid-June (usually between the 14th & 20th, I think); I checked their website, and Olympia still has those same start & end dates. In other areas, they may start in late July and end in May. Many places east of the Rocky Mountains seem to start and end earlier than the West Coast. I think their summers get hot earlier and cool off sooner, but I do not know if that is any part of the reason.
No but teachers have to go back early to get ready and Ms. Chang's school, in Georgia, does begin the school year a few weeks before those in other states ☺
I think Ms Chang's school _does_ start in July, because someone else asked if her school started in July, and Ms Chang replied "yep".

@@JaniceinOR It's interesting how all over the US it's done differently from state to state but the school year and especially summer vacation sure does fly by ☺Our students don't start back until the end of August but teachers are already getting ready and the stores are filled with back to school supplies 📚
According to other commenters, it is common to pack up before summer (8-12 weeks) for several reasons. Custodial staff often deep clean the floors (and other things?). They may paint the walls (or change the flooring or do repairs?). Sometimes, a last-minute decision is made to move a teacher to a different room (maybe because of enrollment numbers?). In addition, some schools allow others to use the rooms during the summer, such as for summer school classes.
In my US town, we finished the first week in June and we don't start back until the last week in August.... some districts in my country finished in May and start mid-August. Out here in rural communities, it's not unusual for our stop and start dates to be influenced by the construction schedules for the bonding referendums that FINALLY passed after years of presenting them to the voters. (a bonding referendum is a special election to approve an increased tax to fund a building project or other expense)
The school schedule in America varies quite a bit - our district gets out at the end of May and starts again mid-August. As long as the school year meets the requirements for hours/days of teaching required, local districts can set the schedule however it works for their area.
It's just different. I have friends in England and while so many states have different schedules as to when they start school and end, America usually has the same amount of summer holiday that England does but during different dates.
Teacher's the only career where you are a salaried employee only when it's convenient for the district lol😂
So true! Rediculous! 😂
Sadly this also applies to grad students, but it’s salaried employee vs. student when convienient.
Can she show her wife

Right? And you know Ms Chang's room is extra 😊
Oh, Ms Chang, you are the James Bond super villain I didn't know I needed so much!❤
I used to help my mom set up her classroom in August. We would get heckled by the janitor.
Brilliant!
My mom was a primary teacher. She used to go in early to decorate the classroom.
This is so true! When I tell my middle school and high school teacher friends that I go in the week before school starts to set up and decorate my classroom-they laugh at me! But I do it for the kids- they need to feel welcomed and they always say they love coming to school the first day to such a colorful and inviting environment-😊
Move over Tom Cruise! Make room for Ms. Chang! 😂
You are personality plus, Ms Chang!
I need this good laugh on my Monday 😂
I seriously could not stop laughing! Love Ms.Change!
I started band today i really needed this to cheer up LOVE YOUUUU
Hahaha, yes. I've even helped my daughter do this. Her classroom was voted the Best 😂
Today set up, tomorrow haircut, last day spent searching for stickers you never hand out 😂
You really are funny in a good way
That ending got me. 😅❤

I was waiting for you to get there just for the floor to be “wet” 😂
Wet with floor shine. The worst! 😂
Lol when I say this gave me a chuckle 😅
Ugh, the cack I cackled 😂😂😂
I was lucky to move into my room since I am transferring schools. However summer school is going on. Plus floors need to get waxed so I'll be back on Aug 5th..
Bond. Chang Bond. 😉
Lol I needed this laugh..thank you, Ms Chang.
I emailed to see if I could get back in tomorrow....but no they are still doing the floors on my end, sigh
Always the floors 🤣
@@mschanggiftedright??! How long does it really take for the yearly coat of wax to dry?? 😂
Why is that always the case? I've had the wax still drying the first day we were to report to campus. I planned in the classroom next door.
Oooh you in trouble now 😂😂😂
The best content. LOL
😂 You're awesome!😂 This was fun.
Yes!!! Many teachers at our school go in early. However, the classrooms are all getting painted this year and not all are ready for us. I'm having to wait. 😕
y’all start in july?! 😭
Yep
@@mschanggifted i hope you have a good school year :)
Question, and pardon my ignorance!! But if you're staying in the same classroom, why are you required to pack up your room every summer? Y'all have enough on your plates lol
Summer deep cleaning, and if you're lucky, new paint!

Love this! It’s so true😂

Two weeks? I start in September, which is over a month away! But I did end school at the end of June

Some districts in Phoenix are starting Aug 5th 🥵
I'm real liking your hair styled like this
I can’t wait till summer! 4 more days!
Same!!! I want to get in now before we go back Monday. 😂
Custodian comes out of a classroom and wonders where the heck the dustpan and trash cans went, 😂😂😂
Lol this is the truth 😂😂😂😂 gotta have those ice breakers when the building opens
Lol loved the costar 😂
Your hair looks fabulous! Do you have an on set hair stylist to go along with the increased production quality? Love it all!
😂 all I can think of is Fox the whole time😂 ooooooh you is a big cheeky kid ❤
In Australia we have our own keys and alarm codes and can pop in any time in the holidays. You really have to because there's never enough time!
Me. 100% No! I can NOT leave the building!!! Leave me alone, man, I got WORK to do!
Lol love it! Yep, I get the announcement over the intercom to leave school too!
Oh Ms. Chang I didn't know your a super villain
I was confused because when you were packing up back in May, you said "I'm due back here the 17th of July." But because you snuck in we got this great video and you got BBQ 😂

It is a worldwide phenomenon 🤣 Thanks for that!
Mission impossible: atlanta school district
Omg, u r so funny. I love u & ur family. 😂❤
Is she is not joking that's how it is. I'm a custodian and they sure do try this
If you’re willing to come back early before they’re willing to pay what does it matter? That seems super silly!!
How was that broom floating all on its own down the hallway?? 😆
We can get in as soon as they finish cleaning.
If we do 3 days in the summer…then we don’t have to work our 3 teacher workdays during the school year!

Have a great school year- y’all❤😊
Awww you teach at Drew? My old nanny kids went there! Such a great school ❤
I'm in Australia so we're in the middle of our school year. When do classes begin for you?
Almost back to school already? Where I live we always got out beginning of June and started back end of August
The district I uses to work for gets out the Thursday before Memorial Weekend and comes back beginning of August
In Olympia, Washington, they start on the Wednesday after Labor Day (4th of September this year) and get out in mid-June (just the same as when I was a kid there 40 years ago, and the same as when Iwas in elementary school in Pearl City, Hawaii).
Love this 😂
That is great.
Haha yes that's so me! 😄
Ms. Chang, did you get your watermelon back? Because I really missed it ☺
How do they have Prime day boxes already 🤨
I thought the same but then I realized they use that tape for a few weeks before to advertise for Prime Day
Why don't they let us come in early to work for free? We spend so much time in our rooms, I like it to be comfortable for me.
Busted😂😂🚔
What date does school start back for the students
(Someone asked if they really start in July, and she replied "Yep." I'll see if there is anything more specific in another comment.)
Do kids go back to school during the summer in the US?

I don’t understand why you have to take apart the whole classroom every single year. It looks like you’re moving every year. Why?
According to other commenters, it is common to pack up before summer (8-12 weeks) for several reasons.
Custodial staff often deep clean the floors (and other things?).
They may paint the walls (or change the flooring or do repairs?).
Sometimes, a last-minute decision is made to move a teacher to a different room (maybe because of enrollment numbers?).
In addition, some schools allow others to use the rooms during the summer, such as for summer school classes.
