In case no one told you today - you are amazing. You continue to push through the obstacles, conquer the mountains, and strengthen your ability to do anything! 💙
The AP Reading begins today. More than 36,000 educators — AP teachers and college faculty from across the country and around the world — will score the free-response work of millions of students who took AP Exams in May. AP Readers will evaluate more than 25 million essays and free response questions.
Teachers who serve as AP Readers consistently describe it as among the most valuable professional learning experiences of their careers — and I believe them.
The AP Readings take place over the course of a month, with a different group of subjects scored each week. In the span of a week, Readers fine tune their judgement of student work in ways that enhance their classroom practice, gain insight into how students think and write across the country, and learn alongside colleagues who teach the same content in a hundred different ways.
To every Reader — whether this is your first AP Reading or your 20th — thank you. The students whose work lands on your table are fortunate to have someone who cares this much.
The work you do this week matters more than you know.
The best coaching staffs I’ve been around had this in common:
They genuinely liked being around each other. They could laugh together, hang out together, and talk football for hours.
Yet they still respectfully disagree in a meeting and then walk out aligned. That kind of trust matters, and it’s not easy to build. It takes time and effort.
“Leading the AVID Way” is packed with collaboration, innovation, and impactful leadership practices! 🔥 The facilitators shared proven strategies to elevate student learning opportunities and schoolwide success. #AVIDExcel#EdLeadership#StudentSuccess#SLI2026
What a great experience! I enjoyed spreading knowledge to adult learners on Conflict Resolution and De-escalation Strategies. My time in Minnesota was a great opportunity to talk about Positive Culture and Behavior Interventions. #LeadbyExample@FultonCoSchools@theAPBS

All emotions are OK. All behaviors aren’t. Give yourself permission to feel how you feel but don’t let it dictate how you treat others. “Standards over feelings.”
