Every school year I set up a secure classroom photo share website. I have always used Shutterfly. They have this super easy to set up template for classroom share sites. It is really so fast to set up and it is a closed, secure way to share photos and more. Right now you are probably asking ...

Fall Teacher Style
I'm back with some fall teacher style for you. Here are some of my looks from this week that I posted on my fashion Instagram (@ebteacherstyle): I snagged the dress (size xs) above at a deep discount during the Nordstrom anniversary sale. The shoes are adorable but I only lasted ...
