From pep rallies to PTA, tailgates to teacher appreciation—this episode is your friendly nudge to plug in where it matters most. Rachel and Yaritza swap real-life ideas for staying involved in your kids’ schools and teams (even with a full-time job), shout out local college game-day traditions (Go Knights!), and share easy, crowd-pleasing football snacks. Whether you’re a mom, grandma, auntie, or the family “team manager,” you’ll leave with practical ways to show up without burning out.
What you’ll hear:
- Simple ways to support your school beyond the classroom (PTA, yearbook, sponsors, social media, SAC)
- How to stay “in the know” on testing, grants, and school priorities
- Volunteering when you’re busy: low-lift roles, weekend projects, and grandparent cameos
- Game-day fun at UCF’s Bounce House + kid-friendly stadium tips
- Flag vs. tackle football: safety, seasons, and keeping it fun
- Teacher Appreciation Week done right (think: real meals, gift cards, and thoughtful themes)
- Football-Sunday food ideas: sliders, dips, chili (hello, walking tacos & chili-stuffed baked potatoes)
