Fall Sunday Wedding of a Teacher
Julija, on August 9, 2022 at 8:58 AM

So I’m getting married on a Sunday in the beginning of the school year. I’m debating wether to just use 1 personal day to recover from the wedding or 2? Mind you I’m still new to the district. 😅

Michelle, on March 29, 2022 at 11:14 PM

How many did you decide to invite? Did you increase or cut the list at any point before save the date notices were sent?
