Your team doesn’t care if you are a super star. They care if you are a super teammate.

Giving teachers hardly any time in their rooms after they return to get ready for the school year might suggest that they were supposed to be preparing for the school year during their unpaid time off.

If we want educators to work during the summer, pay them for their time.

We are doing best by our students when we take care of teachers. As someone once said, "the teacher's working environment is the student's learning environment".

I have never EVER subscribed to or believed in any conspiracy theory in my life. That being said, what I'm about to say, I know, but please hear me out. The new Florida law, HB7, which forbids CRT from being taught in math classes from K-12 here in Florida has resulted in only

Every person in a school district needs and deserves a long and restful break to relax, recharge, and to enjoy time with their friends and family. #Selfcare

When your colleague passes away and their job opening is posted the very next day is a powerful reminder to always put OUR health and our family’s before our job.

@neilhimself The Graveyard Book is my go-to mentor text every October. I read the first chapter the first Friday every October for First Chapter Friday to my 4th graders. Every October it inspires 9 & 10 yr olds to write more. Thank you @neilhimself. 📚❤️

Teachers never forget their WHY. They just get tired of the how. The long hours, lack of resources and in some cases a lack of support and appreciation. Teachers, You can love your why and still need to take care of yourself.
