We still communicate routinely, and once we get settled into to our new roles we will push some new content out. This is good for us…we will be able to develop experienced based content for K-12 educators/leaders.

Just in case any of you have wondered where we been…there have been big changes for @jchrissharp and I @dwilds22 Both of us took new positions over the summer. I jumped into the high school world, and he jumped to the middle school world in a new district.

Big changes coming for 2023. We are currently planning a complete overhaul for FTPD!

Had a great time presenting with my friend and colleague @jchrissharp yesterday. The Northeast TN Learning Together Day was a blast. We enjoyed talking school culture with some great school leaders!

A lot going on in our home state of TN right now w/ our Governor, Charter Schools, and a complete disrespect for public educators. The Doc @jchrissharp addresses it all here…give it a listen!

I support Tennessee teachers and the schools they attended! In my latest podcast, I address Gov Lee and his adviser. Heads up teachers!! These men do not represent us. @BillLeeTN @DeskPrincipal

Found this jewel today of @jchrissharp and I. This is from the 2019 Game Changers Leadership Retreat. Despite the silly pic, we actually did a lot of prep work for the upcoming school year.
