Lots of kids come to school with invisible backpacks, weighted with struggles.
Stress, worry, fear, anxiety, trauma, loneliness, anger, sadness, & hopelessness can make them so heavy; too heavy for learning to happen.
Notice & love them instead.

We glorfiy results. Students usually only see the end product of people who succeed. We must glorify the journey!

Kids will remember very few rules and procedures from their first days of school, but they surely will remember whether or not they feel safe, comfortable, and welcomed by their teacher.
Focus on relationships before rules.
