[Justin Tarte @justintarte]

When the adults in a school acknowledge & greet each other kindly & genuinely, it’s a clear modeling & example for students to do the same to their fellow classmates.

This is #culture building one salutation at a time.

Today, we’ll talk about mental health for teachers. It’s a touchy topic, but I’m anxious to go there for the sake of all those educators who feel as if they have no voice.

“I’ve tried to explain what’s going on in my head to others, only to have them dismiss or minimize my experience. This hurts.” 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for writing this @TeachMrReed! You’re experience is so relatable and empowering. https://t.co/GRDFxjJSSs

[Dwayne Reed @TeachMrReed]

Definitely going to express some of my thoughts on stress in education soon. This needs to be an ongoing conversation. #MentalHealthMatters

[Dwayne Reed @TeachMrReed]

Man. This is so sad.

It’s crazy how much I genuinely love kids. Being in their presence is such a blessing for me.

Were you ever bullied by staff in high school? #AntiBullyingToo #TheseAreTheirStories

[Toni Jones @ToniNeurons]

@downi94 Adults abusing their power, adults practicing force as “power” enforcing policy and rules with prison culture like tactics, students getting unjustifiable detentions and suspensions I could go on and on.

[Toni Jones @ToniNeurons]

So when are we going to talk about students getting bullied by staff in schools? Thats a major #AntiBullying concern too.

Once upon a time @MeaganVoguist created The Powerful Women... and brunch, business, branding, womens empowerment and sisterhood was never the same. Women fell in love with each other and with their visions. #DetroitLoveStory

We are transforming school spaces so @HomeDepot @IKEAUSA or any visual/mural artists want to join in we’d be happy to have you! #DPS #DetroitYouth #Detroit

[Toni Jones @ToniNeurons]

No matter how disempowering the education system is with its outdated ways; a school culture should never feel like a prison culture. Public schools need to empower those who are experts in transformative school culture to bring humanity back to school. #DreamDirector
