So proud that Anderson was my home for 10 years! This team does amazing things for kids! Thanks Superintendent Degenfelder for being there to celebrate with them! #AndersonHawks @Laramie_1 @WYOEducation

[Wyoming Department of Education @WYOEducation]

Superintendent Degenfelder had the opportunity this week to visit Anderson Elementary in Cheyenne, and talk with students and staff. Visiting schools in Wyoming is such a pleasure for us at the WDE - oh, and GO HAWKS!

@Jennife8181 @NBPTS I left teaching this year.

[Rachel Crawford @MsCrawford101]

Last time I can certify unless I return to the classroom. But for now I’m proud to say I’m still a national board certified teacher! @NBPTS #NBCTstrong #learner4life #nationalboards

@staceyhicks81 @NBPTS Thank you!

[Rachel Crawford @MsCrawford101]

@dudleyt529 @NBPTS Thank you!

I don't expect the average US teacher ($58,260) to make as much as the average pro athlete (NBA: $8.3 million, MLB: $4 million, NFL: $3.2 million, NHL: $2.6 million), but I would expect to make more than the average NBA, MLB, NFL and NHL MASCOT ($60k).

@NicholasFerroni Time to do paperwork and testing

[Rachel Crawford @MsCrawford101]

@dsantat Yaaaas! And kids still love it!

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Students remember some of their teachers.

They remember the ones who cared, the ones who were silly, the ones who tried to connect with students, the ones who always seemed to love their job.

EVERY teacher has the opportunity to be memorable.

Leadership is about relationships. When you get that right, your team will get the rest right.

[Rachel Crawford @MsCrawford101]

My room is almost packed and I winding down my last day at #AndersonElementary and @Laramie_1 Excited to be starting a new adventure on Monday, sad to be leaving my students and Hawk family. Thanks @mrfraley for hiring me 10 years ago!!

[Rachel Crawford @MsCrawford101]

Thanks for 6 amazing years #PrincipalSG

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Teachers, never take for granted a leader who makes you feel supported, encouraged, and appreciated. Let them know you appreciate them too.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

The more you like kids, the more they like you.

Why does that matter?

Typically… stronger relationships lead to stronger learning.

In schools… learning is the goal.

[Rachel Crawford @MsCrawford101]

So very, very true.

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

If you want to keep the best teachers, pay them like they're the best and also treat them like they are the best. Few teachers leave an environment where they feel valued, supported, appreciated, and treated like professionals.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

If I have a concern about something at my kid’s school… I should:

A. Post about it on social media

OR

B. Contact someone at the
school who can actually do
something about it

(I’m gonna go with B!)

[Rachel Crawford @MsCrawford101]

@adrianamorgao Will this forgiveness cover Teach Grants which have been converted into loans?

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Without relationships, all you are left with are rules. That's not an environment where teachers or students thrive.

[Rachel Crawford @MsCrawford101]

@RJMotivates @mrfraley @margaretcrespo Great way to start our year!!!
