Good Positive Morning :)

Honest question: What lesson are we teaching students if we A) don’t accept late work, and B) Dock their grade points for submitting work late?

[Dr. Bryan Pearlman #MaslowBeforeBloom @DrP_Principal]

In the remaining days of school, you may see some out of character behaviors from some students. Remember that not all students look forward to summer break. For some students, school is their safe place… where they receive consistent food, where they feel most successful, where they are surrounded by kindness and love, and where they can just be themselves. All behaviors are communication. Respond first with empathy and compassion. Thank you for everything you do for our kids! Have an amazing and well-deserved summer break!

I will be traveling the country providing “Maslow Before Bloom” trainings this Summer and Fall. I would love to come to your school or district. Please message or email me for more info [email protected].

Superintendents should require all central office administrators, including themselves, to work in schools one-half day each semester. Elementary one semester, secondary the other. Actually work—not just visit! Some districts already do this or something similar.

If a formal observation is the first time you are in a teachers classroom, then put the evaluation form away. Sit, listen, and then leave a note of thanks, praise or encouragement. Relationships first!

Students who have IEPs are not "special education students." They are just students. They belong to every teacher they have. Receiving a service doesn't change a students identity as a student. #LeadInclusion #EdChat #UDL #Inclusion

Admin, take time next week to
*say hello to staff/students in the hall
* check on teachers, especially if they have life events they’re dealing with
* sit in on classes & leave note of praise
* let staff know you appreciate them
* ask what staff needs to succeed
* encourage all

Teachers shouldn't have to cover classes, give up planning time, work 20 extra hours a week, do extra tasks, etc. just to be considered effective or all in. Teachers give above and beyond already without it becoming the expectation. It's why there is a huge teacher shortage!

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Besides the many issues with standardized testing. Most students have no idea what they missed on the tests and teachers don't either. And by time they get results students have moved on to next grade. Making it useless to evaluate teachers & districts too.

Let students know you are glad they are there!
