What is a ‘win’ you’ve had recently?

[Melissa Groff @The_Groffice]

@AlanaMReynolds Admin here- I recently left too. Your healing begins now.

[Melissa Groff @The_Groffice]

It’s time to wake up. This is going to happen over and over again until what…

[Alana Reynolds Haynes @AlanaRHaynes]

I resigned. 🙂

My last day as a classroom teacher will be February 7th.

A brilliant comment on a recent tiktok I posted:
“A teachers work environment creates a child’s learning environment.”
✨Read that again.

Educators are humans first.

What are some of the hashtags used for educators leaving the profession? #edchat #education

[Dr. Laura Williams ✨ @mrswilliams21c]

Being a coach doesn’t necessarily mean you know more, but it does mean you care a whole lot about your people’s success.✨

I left my job as a principal. Im hoping to attempt to help others with the things that just about killed me. I’d love it if you’d take a minute to read my blog post about walking away. #edchat #principalsinaction #edutwitter

@danacoledares Facilitate community circles.
You can start with playful “Would you Rather” prompts and work toward deeper prompts later. Build the community within your HR.

[Dwayne Reed @TeachMrReed]

Let’s be okay with teachers playing games with their students, having class parties, and putting on a movie the last couple days before a major break. We should trust teachers’ discretion, and kids deserve to have fun.

And the only profession where you’re made to feel guilty for leaving in the middle of a school year. The only profession where if you don’t land that change in June or July, you have to wait a year.

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Education is the only profession where you're made to feel guilty for time off by society at large. With the irony being that it is unpaid.

[Melissa Groff @The_Groffice]

Hey Twitter! Help me reignite my passion for education. I’ve been off for some time and ready to come back to the best PLN to get me back in the game.

[Melissa Groff @The_Groffice]

We just had another great couple of days with @NmaynardEdu and @WeinsteinEdu continuing our process toward building a restorative school culture. The work we’ve done together is invaluable and we’re seeing great progress! Thank you! #hackingschooldiscipline #WeSoarBEStTogether
