If we teach today's students as we taught yesterday's, we rob them of tomorrow.

Yes!

As a middle school principal, I see the “era of distraction” every day��but I also see opportunity.
We’re not just managing change—we're embracing it.
Relevance. Relationships. Purpose.
Our kids deserve learning that matters. @ajjuliani

You don't administrate schools to excellence.

LEADERS!! What if you woke up every morning thinking you were in the good old days? It may change your interactions and will give you more good old days to talk about in 20 years.

🌈 We can't claim we have a mission of social justice and equality in our schools if we aren't fully inclusive. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL

It’s that time of year again for this reminder: Research is clear that holding kids back DOESN’T work. More time with no change in instruction is simply more of what didn't work the first time. Promote and intervene—almost always the right answer. #LeadInclusion #teacher #edchat

We would like to congratulate 8th Grader, Chloe Davies, on the publication of her poem, "Salt Wind", in the 2022 Young Writers Anthology, Empowered. Thank you to her teacher Ms. Dandrow for supporting her! #BMSthePlace2B @BeekmantownCSD

[Don Haddad @SuptEmeritus]

A problem w/focusing and communicating from a deficit perspective is that we often miss incredible opportunities before us. Further, when we focus on what we don’t have or what we don’t believe we can do, we create a culture of no we can’t, as opposed to YES WE CAN!
