Feel free to use/edit as you see fit. I hope to learn a lot from each of my 174 evaluators.

By training yourself to start uncomfortable conversations, you liberate others to have the conversations they’ve desperately been wanting to have themselves. You could say this is largely what leadership is, the willingness to risk your own neck in a way that benefits others.
Money will come and go throughout life, but when you learn a useful piece of knowledge, you have it forever. Therefore, the best investment of a young person’s resources is education and knowledge.
The iceberg represents your leadership. The 10% above the water is your skill. The 90% below the water is your character. What are you doing to focus on that 90%? #GrowingLeaders#SEL

Some teachers are known to decrease rigor because they think that type of student "can't do that kind of stuff" which
