This morning at around 8:21 AM EST my students will perform their annual Christmas Concert. It’s a time-honored tradition, and represents the biggest performance of the first semester.
I often describe the Christmas Concert as my favorite and least favorite day of the school year. It’s my favorite because it is incredible seeing my students perform, especially while glorifying God. It’s my least favorite because it’s usually a stressful and busy day, after which I am completely drained.
However, this year I am feeling much better about it than I normally do. My kids always do a great job, and the concert always comes off without a hitch (or without too many of them). I think I am feeling confident about the concert because I have actually had time to prepare myself and my students for it properly.
