We want to welcome our 24-25 ETLA LAR members! We had a great first session learning all about leadership styles! Looking forward to seeing all the wonderful literacy initiatives these ladies implement on their campuses. #PISDETLA#PISDLACHAT
My LAR partner, Ms. Castillo led our Map Data PLT and showed teachers how to set class and student goals. Powerful conversations were shared and we are praying for strong student learning outcomes ๐ช๐๐พ

As school begins this fall, remember there is no work-life balance there's just life. And while you may be replaced relatively quickly at school, you're irreplaceable at home. Take time for yourself, friends. and family next school year.
Admin, If a formal observation is the first time you are in a teachers classroom, then put the evaluation form away. Just sit, listen, and leave a note of thanks, praise or encouragement. Relationships first!
I keep thinking about how traumatized my and my parentsโ and grandparentsโ generations were by the footage of the JFK shooting. I was very little but we all stood in front of our televisions when the recording was released and it still replays in my mind. Iโm so sorrowful for the life lost at the rally and for the trauma of a crowd reacting to gunfire but Iโm also profoundly grateful the bullet failed its full intention. For Trump and his loved onesโ sake certainly. But also because this generation would have taken that horrific sight to the grave.
These are such perilous times. My scripture reading this morning ended with the words of Jesus,
โIn this world you will have trouble.โ
Lord Jesus, weโre having trouble down here. Trouble heaped upon trouble!
โbut take heart!โ
Jesus, sometimes it feels like we have lost our hearts entirely. Help us find them again. Hate has overwhelmed us. Unstopped, this violence will destroy us.
โI have overcome the world.โ
You and you alone. You, Jesus. There is only you. Overcomer, come quickly.
As many school leaders begin their new role today think about this. โWhy canโt school be like Disney Worldโ
Our passion for the work, leading with love, and a smile costs absolutely nothing โค๏ธ
School culture starts with us.
@PISD_RISE A16 My Aha! was the survival mode our brain automatically goes into during conflict. This is something to remember to consider when facing conflict and our reaction to it. #pisdRISEchat
