The highest purpose of debate is not to persuade. It's to teach and learn.

In productive disagreements, both people gain knowledge on the topic, wisdom on the process, and understanding of each other.

A successful argument sharpens our skills in both reasoning and listening.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

We don't need to debate whether it's better to be a generalist or a specialist. The world needs both.

Specialists excel at zooming in. They see the details to deepen our knowledge.

Generalists excel at zooming out. They see around corners to broaden our view.

Attendance is such a vital part of the school experience. It is so important to be there as much as possible each and every day.

Putting Maslow Before Bloom can help students flourish socially, emotionally, and academically—especially when you weave it throughout the school day. 🌱

Michelle and I hope that the President, First Lady, and all those affected by the coronavirus around the country are getting the care they need and are on the path to a speedy recovery.

Be a patriot. Do your part.

Wearing a mask will protect you. But it will also protect those around you — your mom, your dad, your son, your daughter, your neighbor, your co-worker.

Don’t just do it for yourself. Do it for the people you love.
