Bayless School District has hired Amelia A. Ruzicka as its next superintendent, effective July 1.
Ruzicka was offered the job after a unanimous selection by the Bayless Board of Education following a search that drew 22 applicants.
Congratulations, Superintendent-elect!
Congratulations to @AmyRuzicka and the rest of the "Amplified Teacher Leadership" team at @BaylessSchools for your success promoting strength and leadership development!
Honored to have been selected to attend the @TeachtoLead Virtual Alumni Summit exactly 3 years after our first summit in Nashville. Can’t wait to meet our critical friend and begin work on our project, “Amplifying Teacher Leadership.”
@AmyRuzicka Thank you, @AmyRuzicka, for orchestrating this regional Educator Well-being Experience for so many educators who deserve practical tools supporting healthy approaches to stress and the cultivation of #mindfulness, #self-care, #SEL skills, #trauma-informed practices and more!
When children are valued more as humans with fears, hopes & dreams than as students with work to do, they will thrive.
When educators are valued more as human beings with fears, hopes & dreams than teachers with work to do, they will thrive.

The amazing @DrewESchwartz shares powerful strategies for completing the stress cycle with educators from Affton, Bayless, Lindbergh, and Valley Park @NXT7.4 #selfcare#123Wellness
The road to a brighter future is paved by safety, connection, empathy & innovation.
We need leaders who understand the difference between a zero-sum game and a positive-sum game mentality. We all deserve tools to create and thrive in such a future.

My daughter has been a nanny for this amazing kid for over a year. When he realized she wouldn’t have a senior prom, he wanted to throw her one. He planned a socially distant prom, complete with dancing & her favorite foods.

The "distancing" in social distancing refers to physical proximity. Now, as always, connecting w/ others socially & emotionally is vital. We're built to connect. In a way, #COVID19 19 is showcasing the power of our #unity & #connection. Pick up the phone, share a smile, be well:)
The most powerful buffer in times of stress and distress is our social connectedness; so let's all remember to stay physically distant but emotionally close. Reach out and connect; even a short text or smiling face on Zoom can help. Regulate, Relate, Reason.
