What happens when you let fifth-graders lead? They left everyone’s spirits and give others a voice. @lowelldistrict #leaders #leadership

If kids return in the fall, I don’t think they’re going to want to spend all of their time reflecting on COVID, sitting in wellness circles, and journaling about their experiences.

They’re going to want life to be as normal as possible—that’s the biggest comfort we can provide.

Murray Lake 4th & 5th grade students participated in their first "Battle of the Books" book club today to review/rate their books & have book talks with their peers. Thank you to our Lowell Education Foundation for supporting this new initiative! @lowelldistrict #battleofthebooks

@kwall628 I love the staff spotlight idea at staff meetings. As a literacy coach I see so many great things happening in classrooms and this would be a great way for teachers to share what they are doing and help lead the learning!

[Jennafer Slanger @jlslanger]

@MrsRosenLeacher @casas_jimmy Thank you!

[Jennafer Slanger @jlslanger]

@NateCFowler Nate, sorry to hear about the passing of your mom. Thinking about and praying for your family!

[Jon Gordon @JonGordon11]

Three things you control every day are your ATTITUDE, your EFFORT and your ACTIONS. It doesn’t matter what others are doing or who you think is being unfair. Every day you can focus on being positive, working hard and making others around you better.

[Jennafer Slanger @jlslanger]

@JonGordon11 Looks like a great book!! 🎁 @mollyburnett25
