@Matt_Stepp817 They were open for lunch today. It gave permission for people to go crazy! I wouldn’t go within 10 miles of the Lubbock one.

Average college players spend 3,000 hours on their game in 4 years. Only 4% of that is spent on actual game play. You need mental & physical stamina, toughness & a willingness to work regardless of success or playing time. You have to love the process of what it takes to compete!

Their criticism reflects their limits, not your potential!

Admin to Teacher Phrases We Are Sick of…

“Remember your why’

‘Do it for the kids’

‘Try building relationships’

‘’Remember to practice self-care’

‘The Hattie data says’

‘‘Don’t forget about differentiating’

‘We will have a new curriculum that will address all of our needs’

[Advocate GOAT @theDRAMAgoat1]

Any school that requires teachers to submit lesson plans when they aren't been formally evaluated doesn't know how to hire teachers. If you've hired someone, let them do the job you thought they were qualified for instead of micromanaging every worksheet and activity. #EduPinion

I believe in God. You don’t have to believe for me to treat you with love and respect. After you know me, my hope is that you may want to know more about him. If you see light in me…. He is the glow. I believe it’s in you too.

5 tips to reduce stress of staff.
1) if asking to meet with staff member, let them know why.
2) Don't address an issue you have with one person with the whole staff.
3) Praise 5 times more than you critique
4) fewer meetings
5) continual encouragement, support, and praise.

Yes!! They feel that energy too!

The teachers who were the most memorable to me were the ones who really enjoyed teaching.

When teachers find joy in the classroom… the students know.

Did you know? One in three teachers say they’re likely to quit and find another job in the next two years. And it will only get worse. Gen Z and Gen Alpha won't stay at a job where they aren't valued and supported. This is especially relevant in teaching, where the younger generations prioritize meaningful work environments, strong support systems, and opportunities for personal and professional growth. Ensuring they feel appreciated and empowered is crucial for retaining passionate, dedicated educators in the future! #Relationshipsbeforerigor for teachers too!

Leadership is not truly tested until the storm hits.

Give your best to get their best.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

We know what happens.
Administrators forget.
They forget the daily challenges & stresses teachers face. Perhaps it’s been some time. Perhaps you were never even a teacher.

That’s why EVERY admin should teach at least one class while they are a principal, superintendent, etc.

Simply so they don’t forget teacher challenges and the SUPPORTS we need.

If we want to be student focused this fall, we have to be teacher focused first!

Regardless of the anxiety that change may bring, life is too short to stay where you aren't appreciated, supported, and valued.

When you value your staff, they want to stay, when you add value they want to be their best!
