As a classroom teacher, I viewed my standards as the finish line. I had it wrong.
Education standards should be viewed as the learning floor rather than the learning ceiling.
Don't write off students who struggle and label them as lazy or unmotivated.
Instead, be curious about the skills they're missing that we can teach them to help them succeed.
Let's assume the best about kids. Most often they want to succeed but may not have the tools...yet.
Schools need teachers who teach “by love” – love for their subject, love for their students, love for the sacred work of shaping minds and nurturing souls. But such teachers can flourish only in schools that respect teachers and take teaching seriously.
