Elementary principal in Southwest Missouri. Passionate about empowering teachers to be the best version of themselves so we can create a better tomorrow!
Last full week before Thanksgiving! While the adults are excited, many students are anxious and will need tight structure and boundaries. Also, consider using class meetings to give students a voice regarding their feelings, excitements and concerns. #BISTon@OurCornerstones

@JasonReynolds83 would you be willing to sign some books for a few adoring fans? They read Ghost as a Mark Twain nominee this year and are flying through the rest of the series!
#ThoughtForTheDay I’m in favor of schools providing instructional coaches 2 support teachers in the classroom. What if we focused on cultivating an environment where all Ts saw themselves as an instructional leader? We can. High expectations plus support & opportunity. #Culturize
Remember who you work for. You don’t work for parents, Boards of Education, Superintendents, or Principals. As an educator you work for kids and they are who you are ultimately accountable to.
@haleshannon Would you be willing to help with a project to help promote Real Friends as a Mark Twain nominee? I would love to offer them an autographed copy if their favorite nominee after they’ve read 4 and vote.
