The little ones are those who, like children, feel their need and are not self-sufficient. They are open to God and allow themselves to be amazed at his works. They know how to read the signs, to marvel at the miracles of his love! #GospelOfTheDay (Mt 11:25)

What sense does an honor roll make if a student who didn't have to work extremely hard for their grades got A's and B's, yet a student that works extremely hard and surpasses expectations to get C's gets no recognition?

Some may not want to talk about it. But the reason so many Teacher Ed programs have declining enrollment is that Gen Z has seen how teachers have it and they want no part of it.

Standardized tests have no place in elementary education. Because testing becomes the focus of education instead of learning. We take away the fun and excitement of learning, playing, exploring, & creating. We create test takers instead of problem solvers and innovators.

@Pontifex Examination of conscience, an important aspect in growing one's interior life, getting closer to Christ.

Even in business and contemporary affairs one has to take stock whether he is growing or not.

Powerful message👏

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Our models of consumption and production, and our lifestyles, must respect creation and the integral human development of all peoples. Let us renew the covenant between human beings and the environment, a mirror reflecting the creative love of God. #TimeofCreation

“God doesn’t desire me to live in fear. He will grant me the grace to tackle the challenges before me if only I step out boldly in his service. St. Teresa helped me realize that God’s grace is stronger than my fears.” @Salerno_Thomas https://t.co/x5N8X7AO3D

Public schools are not failing students.

Public school teachers are not failing students.

The system is failing public schools, teachers and students.

Stop saying public schools and teachers are failing students when the system is setting them up to fail.

I am near the suffering Ukrainian people. How is it possible not to understand that war only creates destruction and death, driving people apart, killing truth and dialogue? Let us #PrayTogether that negotiations might begin again.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us ask the Lord to help us overcome our selfish indifference and put ourselves on the Way. Let us ask him to have compassion on those who suffer and are in need, to draw near to them and do what we can do to give them a hand. #GospelOfTheDay (Lk 10:25-37)

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

I renew my closeness to the Ukrainian people, who are daily tormented by the brutal attacks that ordinary people are paying for. Let us #PrayTogether that God might show the way to put an end to this senseless war!

Thank you, teacher bestie.

The best school leaders never forget what it’s like to be a classroom teacher.

In #Ukraine, bombardments continue which are causing death, destruction and suffering for the population. Please, let us not forget these people afflicted by the war. Let us not forget this in our heart and with our prayers.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Let us not forget the people of Ukraine battered by war. Let us not become accustomed to live as though the war is something far off. Let us #PrayTogether for these people who are suffering so much and who are living a true martyrdom.
