build up their immune system the longer they teach. This is my 6th year of teaching, and I've already come down with my 1st wicked cold of the year. I've never caught one this early! It does NOT bode well for the rest of the year!

I just started as a teacher's aide and I've been sick, sick, sick the last two weeks. Everyone keeps telling me I'll build up my immune system.

Hope both of you feel better. Sorry you are sick.

Make all the kids in your classroom wear those little white masks.

Or spray 'em down with a little disinfectant.

This is my 6th year of teaching, and I've already come down with my 1st wicked cold of the year.

I've already had a stomach virus! Yuck!

I am a teachers aide and about every other year I get really sick. I'm hoping that this year will be my well year.

Hose 'em down before you touch 'em!

I remember my 6th grade science teacher telling me she got the measles her first year of teaching.
