Please stop comparing you/your school/your district to others. YOU and coworkers are doing the best you can do! What works for a district of 900 doesn't work for a district of 20,000 and vise versa. Focus on what you can do. Focus on what is good for your kids. Connect! Support❤️

Thank you to the ROMS Robotic Club for participating in Oak Ridge’s Math and Science Night.

[Jason Parrott @ParrottJason]

Oak Ridge had our second annual March on Oak Ridge. Our Student Senate acted out scenes and presented songs about the life of Dr. King and the civil rights movement. We concluded our assembly with a “March on Oak Ridge” and a “Circle of Silence” including all 450+ students.

Research: College students with helicopter parents were more likely to suffer burnout and less able to transition into the workplace. (Also, helicopter dads do more harm than helicopter moms.)

Lesson: Stop micromanaging young people.

Recipe for top performance, via @BStulberg:

- Apply persistent effort by following your interests;

- Practice to improve, not to outdo others;

- Derive satisfaction from within;

- Feel supported -- but not pressured -- by coaches, family, teachers.

The research is clear: Recess *cannot* be optional.
