What is it?

Your staff has little patience for cheesy icebreakers and time-wasting meetings in August, and honestly, who can blame them?

The Principal’s No-Cringe August Playbook gives you easy, flexible ways to inject laughs, strengthen relationships, welcome new staff, and set a positive tone without adding meetings or extras to anyone’s plate. Best of all, the planning is already done for you, freeing up your time to focus on the hundred other things demanding your attention in August other than “team building.”

How it works.

Includes 8 quick, flexible, EASY TO EXECUTE activities to use in the background of the first days and weeks the staff returns. Everything is laid out for you with simple copy/paste emails and instructions.

Activities include:

  • “The Great Escape” - What if your staff could "escape" this year's team-building meeting? All it takes is one hilarious email with a simple challenge that will have everyone genuinely interacting and enjoying each other’s company.

  • “The More You Know” - Super humorous “Public Service Announcement” presentation for cleverly reviewing new policies, guidelines, and the staff handbook. Based off the old NBC “The More You Know” PSA commercials, and you get to insert members of your own team into the video.

  • “Off to the Races” - The simplest ideas are always the best. One simple question starts it all, and before you know it the whole school is cheering and lauging, and nobody needs to know you planned the whole thing.

  • “SEEECRETS” - 10-minute activity for welcoming new staff and letting senior staff show off their humor and school knowledge.

  • “Let’s Eat!” There's something special about sharing a meal. It slows us down, gets us talking, and helps people connect in a way that's hard to recreate anywhere else. Perfect for a teacher workday, this simple activity will become one of your school’s favorite new traditions.

Reviews:

“These are so valuable to my staff.  The Great Escape was an amazing 3 months of fun that we just kept going.  THANKS!!!" -Duane Ehmen

“The SEECRETS activity was the hit! At first I thought it was a great way to open up and welcome our new staff, but we loved it so much that we’ve made it a permanent section in our monthly newsletter.” – Carrie Bonilla

“This was exactly what I’ve been looking for! It took all of this start of year culture planning off my plate which was just what I needed. We’ve had the best energy to start a year ever. Sooooo much fun, especially Cache Cab! I’m telling all our other principals about it and you can expect to hear from them soon.” – Lara Latto
