Teacher’s emotions and stress levels have been found to influence both students and other teachers. Teacher wellness is the foundation on which healthy school environment can flourish. Luckily, The Daily Mile is a free, simple solution that can improve your mental, emotional, and physical health and wellbeing – and that of your students, too.

Teaching under normal circumstances can be difficult.

But now, you are creating history by doing something that has never been done before—teaching during the coronavirus pandemic. You are adapting to a new life, grieving the loss of normal, dealing with school/class closures, developing new in-school and distance learning models, adhering to mask requirements, making accommodations for social distancing rules, taking temperatures, filling out paperwork, dealing with quarantine regulations, and deep cleaning the classroom.

We know you are exhausted, overworked, feel undervalued, and are responsible for dozens of tiny human beings for seven hours a day, 180 days a year.

The Daily Mile is for YOU because you need self-care, too!

For students to be successful, teachers must be taken care of. The Daily Mile is a free solution that gets you and your students outside to walk, run, or jog for 15 minutes during the school day. You can sign up today and start tomorrow. It’s so simple! The Daily Mile is …
