Refreshing day at the Women in Leadership Conference in Bloomington!

Relationships. Relationships. Relationships.
Avoid seeing behaviour, but see communication.
We need to remember that children don't choose to have a meltdown.
We need to bring calm , not shame.๐ง ๐ฑ
Today in the life of a superintendent-Came home for lunch, started a pot of water to boil, got a call from the school, boiled the pot of water for 3 1/2 hours. #superintendent#watchedwaterneverboils#hotdogfail
Put out a few fires today and had apple pie for lunch! Iโd say it was a successful day in this Superintendentโs life. #tgif#eatdessertfirst#superintendent
@DomWatersUSHou1 Yes! And letโs not forget the laborers taking $25,000 from Sallie Mae out for lineman training. A 20-year-old should NOT have to do that.
Oh, and his certificate is more valuable than his truck yet he cannot use it as collateral as he could with his truck. Whatโs wrong with this picture? #priorities#makecollegeaffordable
Why are student loans still allowed to collect 12.75% interest rate?? If they had their way, heโd be paying $30,000 additional dollars over the life of the loan. #studentloans#ripoff
Vacation at #lakeoftheozarks did not disappoint but dropping my phone in the lake did disappoint! Thankful it saved these photos before dying. ๐#vacation#family
Itโs an interesting time in education. So many phenomenal leaders were burned out after 2 years of conflicted communities and rollercoaster requirements. I wish the best to those we are replacing and look forward to leading our community and district to be better together.
