#ThoughtForTheDay Worries me that some educators fear change when the 2 things they should fear is that a year from now they will still be in the exact same place as they are today, resulting in them losing hope that nothing will change & burning out. We need you ..via #Culturize
I remember being in my 20s & wondering if the more I learned about the world, the more I‘d realize there were many answers. The reverse happened. The longer I’ve lived, the surer I’ve become that Jesus is the only cure for this sick world. No better news on earth than the gospel.

Think about ending conversations when dealing w/student discipline issues w/these two questions...
Do you think I treated you fairly?
Do you think I care about you?
