I so enjoyed revisiting my #BISTOn training and use from years past. Accountability and Grace - it's what we all need. Great work @MartyHuitt and Gail. The research about greeting students at the door were the numbers I feel but didn't know!
With spring upon us, it is the time students must know that adults will continue to lean in to the relationship, be on their side and create circumstances that allow for success. Because every child is worthy of success!! #BISTon#AllInCARE@OurCornerstones

Congratulations to Grant Hegstad of @mocfvcsd for being awarded the @Milken Educator Award! Director McKenzie Snow helped with the surprise announcement to a very excited student body. "As the Department continues to celebrate incredible teachers across the state, I am excited to invite the national Milken Educator Award back to Iowa for the first time since 2017," said Director Snow. "Together, we help honor Grant Hegstad for his impactful leadership connecting the classroom to the workplace and preparing students for in-demand, high-wage and public good careers. Grant supports his fellow teachers in professional learning and builds strong partnerships with industry, growing work-based learning opportunities for students in MOC-Floyd Valley and across Iowa. On behalf of all of us at the Department, congratulations Grant!"
I had a great time on the Difference Makers podcast with Joni talking about some of my favorite leaders including @DrKChilds@PrincipalKafele the @Milken@openupresources and my uncle, Bill Keightley!
Thanks for letting me share about my experiences in education and leadership.
