For students, a break from the classroom is a dream come true, however for us teachers, it could be truly chaotic. Strap in because our hosts Tyler Jackowski, Anna Kowal, and Gabe Dannenbring are going to be sharing their craziest field trip horror stories.

From zoo field trips that seem to be a staple in every school's itinerary, to historical museum trips that turned out to be surprisingly engaging, these teachers have seen it all. You'll crack up at Anna's crazy zoo story that will have you questioning if you ever want to go on a field trip again.

Of course, let's not forget about the unpredictable element of parent volunteers. You wouldn't believe how quickly these parent’s attitude changed towards Gabe on their yearly bowling trip.

Hopefully you got those permission slips signed, because you're going to need them on this week's episode of Teachers Off Duty.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with being a bit quirky, but some teachers really like to push those limits. Our hosts Gabe Dannenbring, Bri Richardson, and Anna Kowal know that better than anyone, and they're going to be sharing the worst things their fellow teachers do that drive the rest of the school crazy.

We all know that teachers are a unique breed, and sometimes their quirks can make things a bit… interesting. For example Bri shares a hilarious tale about a teacher who always insists on wearing a different themed outfit for each day of the week. While some may roll their eyes, tune in to find out Bri’s optimistic point of view on this situation.

But it's not all quirks and icks, our hosts also discuss the delightful surprises their fellow teachers bring to the table. Whether it's homemade goodies at staff meetings or a sweet thank-you note, these teachers know how to dish out kindness and create a positive school culture.

We can't speak for everyone, but we didn't become teachers for the pay, or the free coffee in the breakroom, we did it for the gratifying experience of helping students learn. Through Parent Teacher conferences,and surprise admin visits, it’s easy to lose track of all that, however this week our hosts Gabe Dannenbring, Anna Kowal, and Bri Richardson will be reminding you why we all became teachers in the first place.

Sometimes it's about the little things, small gestures that our students do that remind us that our hard work is appreciated. Bri reminisces how much a simple heartfelt compliment from a student can mean to her and how much it brightens up her entire day.

Now while we all appreciate the small things in life, sometimes it's really about those life changing revelations. As educators, our main goal is, and you’d never believe… is to educate. So we're excited to share our favorite moments of witnessing our students' transformations and those powerful "aha" moments.
