The culture of a school is created by everyone in the school. Walk in a school and see how the front office staff greets people or the staff /teachers interact in the hallway. Yes the admin has most impact, but everyone is ultimately responsible for a positive school culture.

Tomorrow, a child will ignore you and seem rude. All night his parents will be screaming, slamming doors, and taking the worst of their anger out on him before he gets on the bus. This child isn't rude, but hurt! Show Grace, Be Mercy, Give Love! These Kids need us!!!

Looking for a first grade class to do a #mysterynumber with.

Why are we lowering the standards for becoming a teacher to address teacher shortages rather than addressing the issues causing the problems?
