End of the Year

As it comes to the end of the schoo year I'm feeling very worn down. This year has been very difficult due to the group of children in my class (a lot of personality conflicts and many needy children). I love my job and can't imagine doing anything else but these year has left me feeling drained. How do you bounce back from a year like this? I'm always excited to start a new school year but it would be nice to leave school without a "bad taste in my mouth". Any ideas on how I can re-energize before I get my next year's class list in August? :)

Also, do any other teachers help principals create next year's classes? It seems like it would be helpful to have the teachers look at the classes before they are set to prevent an overload on one or two classrooms. (I know, I know, energy points are supposed to prevent this... but do they?)
