I am so proud of one of the happiest people I know. It just makes me smile to be around her. Stefanie Cook won an award at the Counselor Conference. She is truly a gem in MCS and at Madison Elementary. ⁦@JamieGolliver ⁦@MadisonHornets⁩

Just keep pushing!

[Bethany Hill🌟#JoyfulLeaders @bethhill2829]

Our greatest barriers are often the ones we build in our own minds. The brain naturally defends itself from anything uncomfortable, which means we have to be intentional about our mindset. It takes work! We have to push back on our own level of comfort. #JoyfulLeaders

A5: I think leaders who are confident yet humble know themselves well and accept & express their humanness in an authentic way. Each situation is one for learning, growing, gratefulness, and teamwork. #APchat

[Jenn Perkins @JennPerkins2]

A3: It’s about giving others the opportunity to grow. The greatest thing we can do is to give others opportunities to lead and grow. A humble leader grows other leaders #APChat

Let’s stop telling students we are preparing them for the real world.

This is their real world.
Each day. Every minute.

Many of our students have experienced more ‘life’ in their few years than the adults they engage with on a daily basis.
