Avoid This Costly Base-Running Mistake! 🏃‍♂️

[Jen @jenteach13]

I sat in a meeting last week for two hours. Four teachers were pulled from their classrooms. A table full of data that everyone had already seen. We talked about the numbers. We agreed they were concerning. Someone wrote things on a whiteboard.

Then we went back to our classrooms. Nothing changed. The meeting did not exist to solve the problem. It existed to document that the problem was discussed. Documentation is not action.

Here is something I want you to do. Pull up your district's organizational chart. Count the administrators. Then count the teachers. Then ask who is in the room with your child every single day and who is in a meeting talking about that room.

The system is not broken. It is working exactly as designed. Just not for the kids.

Pitchers, can you shorten up your arm-path on your pickoff throws?

Your child's school has an assistant superintendent for curriculum, an assistant superintendent for instruction, a director of teaching and learning, and a coordinator of academic services. Your child's teacher has thirty-two kids and no copy paper. This is not a funding problem. It is a priority problem.

This play should never trick us, but it often works. Here's how to prevent it...

If you're a parent, I highly recommend signing up for the Daily Dad email newsletter. It's gold!

It's been in my inbox every morning for years, and it's done so much to improve my fatherly mindset for the day.

Being a parent opens you up.

It turns on a special sensitivity, an acuteness to notice things your younger self might have glossed over. It also sharpens our sense of responsibility—to bear witness, to tell the truth, to confront the world instead of look away.
