@ELmagazine Stop waiting for the myth of buy-in. Behavior precedes belief. Do it - measure the results - and onlh then ask for buy-in. If you wait for buy-in from everyone, we wil have this debate in 50 years.
Grades are not earned.
When we push that narrative we make grades a transactional currency related to work.
School is not about work.
School is about learning.
That is all.
Bad bosses punish time off. They see vacations as a lack of dedication to work.
Good bosses grant time off. They see vacations as a source of energy for work.
Great bosses insist on time off. They see vacations as a right, not a reward—they care about your life beyond work.
Steps to mastery of a skill: 1. acquisition (I did it once) 2. fluency (I can do it consistently) 3. maintenance (I can keep doing it) 4. transfer (I can use it in new ways) (Hanson, et al., 1978) and still true. #LeadInclusion#SpecialEducation#EdChat#UDL#Inclusion

Changing your mind is not a sign of losing integrity. It's often a mark of gaining wisdom.
Realizing you were wrong doesn't mean you lack judgment. It means you lacked knowledge.

Had a massive aha with @PeterMDeWitt … been using the school improvement plan to comply. Starting the 23-24 work now and making it meaningful thanks to you, DeWitt!
Recently I had two incredibly opposite conversations with two different teachers. Teacher 1: principals have no place in curriculum or pedagogy… Teacher 2: no one should ever take away the principals leadership with curriculum & pedagogy. Which teacher do you relate to and why?
While I don’t teach early childhood and I’m not a leader in this realm- I’ll buy this book because it’s my personal and profession goal to own every single book written by @DFISHERSDSU & @NancyFrey
@sstorey331 @PeterMDeWitt He is absolutely to blame! Grateful to know you! Reading your tweet was a needed dose of courage for me that affirmed- yup- this is what we do!
Had 3rd sub ask if I have any positions open. They love our kids. They love our staff. We don’t indoctrinate. Focus is on students. You feel it when you walk in the door. I push back on practices and people that try to change that. #NoApology#CultureAndClimate#Efficacy
