Leadership is not a rank or a position to be attained. Leadership is a service to be given.

You can always tell those invested in human potential.

They will find a way to give you feedback whether you ask for it or not.

Those are my people.

@cmichutahotmai1 @SteeleThoughts Agreed! It is a fine line balance, I believe.

[Leslie Dunn @LMDone23]

@tighe_lee Amen, sister!

Shoutout to the educators who understand the power of positivity. I’m dodging bad vibes and negativity this year like it’s the plague (because it is). Who’s with me? 🙋🏻‍♀️

@MissQueenB5 Oh yes, this gif is perfect!

@BTeacherNH I’m late to this, but there is ALWAYS more room at the positive posse table! #youCANsitwithus

[Leslie Dunn @LMDone23]

@victoriajcoe Yes! I am so glad you found me and the videos! I will certainly look into the virtual event- my students will be so excited! Thank you ❤️

I think effective teachers are not driven by the standards; they’re driven by the needs of their kids. They understand the curriculum and they teach what is required but it’s always in the context of understanding where their students are, and what it takes to move them forward.

@Fwiz White claws. Obvi.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

February can be a long month... and you have some colleagues who are barely hanging on. They’re just trying to keep their head above water. But you may not know which ones… so I recommend being gracious with all of them.

And your students too.

[Penny Beaudry @PennyBeaudry]

It’s like nourishment... where the food is free and endless if we choose to share our joy - smile and be present. Feed them.

The in house PD my school provided today was AMAZING. It was informative, needed, and most importantly, tangible and useful in the work I do daily. Excited to implement some new practices. Thank you @hcscanton for valuing teachers and students!

Today: "Above all, put on love." Intentional love. Then see what happens.

[Leslie Dunn @LMDone23]

@hcscanton The HCS Cafe staff and food is second to none! Such an integral part of what makes HCS a great place to be.

Dear 1st Year Teachers,

Congratulations! You’re half way through the most overwhelming year of your life. You may think about changing careers because I did, but don't do it. It’s never easy but it gets easier, and it’s worth it.

[Leslie Dunn @LMDone23]

First day back to school, and I told myself this as I got up before the sun this morning: “You’re dreading going back to work, but there are 14 sweet kids who love you and can’t wait to see you. Show up with a smile.” And I did. It was a great day.
