“Learning can be stifled if kids feel like they don’t belong at school…Luckily, the antidote of robust, mission-driven advisory curriculums can help students’ connectedness to the school community, as well as foster their growth and overall success.” https://t.co/QMW0CdZcSi

“It sounds counterintuitive, but children’s sense of adventurousness is paradoxically tied to their sense of safety.”

We never at at this restaurant so my now-15 year probably seldom or never heard the name aloud when she was five or six and learning to read. So she thought the name was Pope-Yes.

We’re in our second year of holding year-long Onward book clubs, and I highly recommend it for any educator or group of educators looking to build their own resilience and better support students.

What a great @HardingAcademy story! Love me some Patti Wright!

[Harding Academy @HardingAcademy]

It was so great to hear alum Reese Witherspoon '90 talk about her fond memories of our own Mrs. Wright. We have the BEST teachers who encourage our kids to explore their dreams! #hardingmoments

Love a good choice board . . . for middle schoolers or at home with my nine-year-old!

[Dr. Catlin Tucker @Catlin_Tucker]

Wish you had more time to pull small groups or conference w/students? Choice boards are fantastic for creating that time & space while giving students agency!
