We measure what’s easy.
But we should be building what matters.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

Schools exist to support families, not replace parents.

That means parents need to actually parent, and the govt & communities need to stop treating schools as the fix for bad parenting.

If you’re an educator who thinks otherwise, you’ve watched too many teacher hero movies.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

Every adult in the U.S. should be required to spend one month as a substitute teacher. This would ensure schools have the substitutes they need while fostering a greater appreciation and respect for teachers. Think of it as a civic duty, similar to jury duty.

With the new school year about to begin, let’s remember that not every student went on a family vacation, visited an amusement park, explored nature or met new friends at a sleepover camp in the woods.

Some students summer highlights include having a roof over their head and just enough food to survive.

These students have been counting the days to return to school for safety, consistency, support, friendship, nutrition, and hope for the future!

Thank you for everything you do for our students!

Attendance matters!

[Emily Paschall @EmilyAPaschall]

It’s about that time, y’all.

CLASS LISTS.

Administrators across the country are meticulously finalizing class lists, and teachers are anxiously waiting to see which kids will become their new babies for 180 school days.

It’s also that time of year where the chatter starts…

…about THAT kid.

The one who has a reputation for being “low”.
The one who “can’t behave.”
The one who is “lazy”.
The one who _______.

Don’t be the teacher who judges a child based on another person's opinion.

🔹Every kid deserves a reset.
🔺Every kid deserves more chances.
🔹Every kid deserves a champion.

Many kids are on the road to failure because of reasons beyond their control. Be the person who redirects their path this year.

Be their merchant of hope! People don’t need us to be merchants of hope during the easy times. It is in the darkest moments that they need their merchant of hope to selflessly carry them through the storm.

We chose the profession where we are helping raise other people’s kids. As you receive your class lists over the next few days, receive them with love, clean slates, and lots of grace.

The reality? We are all doing this really hard thing called “life” in the best and only way we know how.

Never judge a child based on another person’s opinion.

And while we’re at it, let’s replace "child" with "person" (friend, colleague, parent, acquaintance, stranger).

Patient. Loving. Understanding. Forgiving. Grace giving.

These are the attributes of a person who can reach
another person's heart and change their pathway. I have so much work to do on myself so that I can better help others. I'm especially thankful for grace.

“Great schools are not just led by the administration; they are led by teachers too. In great schools everyone owns the vision...and everyone is on a mission.” #EssentialTruths
