In the words of one of my daughter’s books, “Stick and Stone”, “That’s just what friends do. Friendship rocks, too.” You have to have great colleagues to do this work, appreciate @MattWprincipal. #eaglesrise
The only thing more epic than Common Bond at SCS are the students and staff who participate in this fantastic group. This group is how we practice understanding, kindness, & acceptance. Join up. #eaglesrise#bonder4life

Why lead? I lead to support people to move themselves and others from surviving to thriving. Great activity this morning at New Teacher Orientation, @RFrens. Thanks @akruppe1 for fostering & developing these beliefs.
Amazing what @Clarkj_Eagles finds when he does back to school cleaning. Look out @MelissaUsiak, I have some vintage school gear for our first semester of EAD 921. @MSUCollegeofEd
For a place designed and developed for kids, this crew is a few of the many kids who are the future of the new PreK-6 building. The ground has been broken and the project is underway. #eaglesrise@SCSEagles1
Who doesn’t want to be happier? Entering a new school year with a phenomenal group of colleagues who give their best for all kids is inspiring my launch into the 2021-2022 school year. #eaglesrise@SCSEagles1
Gratitude toward gratitude. Today I receive 3 thank you cards from Ss in the #classof2021 who were recipients of Schoolcraft Foundation Scholarships. It’s nice to know these scholarships inspired appreciation as our kids take flight. Thank you to our donors for their investment.
@Tracey_N_Chris There is a fine line between stretching someone’s comfort zone and growing and floundering. The difference, in my view, is a supportive adult to guide, mentor, teach/coach, and reflect.
This makes me wonder what structures we unintentionally put in place that force our kids to have to be resilient. If that is the case, shouldn’t we adjust our school climate so all kids have a barrier free experience? Life seems to offer up its own lessons well enough.
Resilience is a useful capability to have, sure, but efforts to promote it in kids often distract us from efforts to identify and challenge the harmful practices (or policies) that *require* resilience
