One of my darling 2nd graders today: “I’ve been to 5 different schools, but this school isn’t like any of the other schools. We do different stuff here and I get it.” #WeareHCS #DroptheMic @HCS_TitleI @HamptonCSchools @MBlountJr @CJSmithSharks

Phil Jackson said, "Leadership is not about forcing your will on others. It's about mastering the art of letting go."

Ken Blanchard said, "We works better than me."

Great leaders believe they work for the team not themselves.

Let’s normalize teaching children how to appropriately handle failure and disappointment instead of rushing in to save or fix every every difficult situation for them.

Students in Mrs. Slade’s class had a special guest reader this week! One of her former students came back from 3rd grade to read a book and model her fluent reading! #relationships #WeAreHCS @CJSmithSharks @SladeLuvs2tch @HCS_TitleI

Power that comes from investing in people, like identifying teachers who are effective leaders and can help implement bold changes in literacy instruction and foster buy-in with peers.
