Eight years ago this week, we protected young people who were raised as part of our American family from deportation. Today, I'm happy for them, their families, and all of us. We may look different and come from everywhere, but what makes us American are our shared ideals…
We will always remember everyone we lost on 9/11, thank the first responders who keep us safe, and honor all who defend our country and the ideals that bind us together. There's nothing our resilience and resolve can’t overcome, and no act of terror can ever change who we are.
Some say that giving kids redos on a test will not prepare them for the real world. But how many adult exams are given once w/no second chances? SAT? ACT? Drivers’ test? Contractors’ license? The Bar? Medical boards? Virtually every real life exam allows redos...
I don’t understand why giving kids the opportunity to try, get feedback, and try again during football practice is considered good coaching, but giving kids a chance to try, get feedback, and retest in an academic course is enabling? #AmImissingsomething?
The kind of behavior that really is spiritual practice consists of refraining from falsehood and abiding by the truth, neither humiliating nor mocking others, being humble, and having a good heart and helping others.

Amazing video:
A dog sees a drowning deer during its morning walk.
Jumps into the water to rescue the deer.

I think a great thing to do... is ask the students in the school, what they think the adults in the school, need to know about them. Listening to what the students have to say... and valuing what they have to say... goes a long way toward building a great school culture.
Amazing music being made right this minute at the Lesher Center! 🎶 Thank you Northgate students for a wonderful concert. @MtDiabloUSD@NorthgateHS@SequoiaScience
