Fun fact: he also mentioned that he used to be a tennis coach for the boys’ tennis team. He also said he loves to de-stress and finds it relaxing. Adams said that in his first year of teaching, he would have to stay till 5 o’clock, but now he only stays until 3:25. He said his favorite survive-the-school-day drink is a blue bubble, and he also mentioned that when he enters his car after school, he puts on the Chicago Bears podcast or listens to Noah Kahan.

When she has free time, she enjoys reading, which she describes as a relaxing way to spend her afternoons. Ditez said she likes to take her dog for a walk, no matter the weather. Whether it is warm and sunny or cold outside, she makes time to get outside and enjoy the fresh air. Another thing Ditez said was that she likes to call her fiancé every day after school the moment she gets into her car. When it comes to her favorite survive-the-school-day snack or drink, she really likes a La Croix sparkling water.
