I don’t care what your personal mission statement says. Everyone in the building knows what you’re about by how you spend your time.

“We can only achieve quantum improvements in our lives as we quit hacking at the leaves of attitude and behavior and get to work on the root from which our attitudes and behaviors flow.” Yup. The plant science teacher in me geeking out over that quote. Be ready students 🤓🪴🌱

At our last principal’s meeting, our superintendent said, “Y’all make sure you turn your phones off and spend time with your family over the break. Our families are the reasons we even have jobs.”

A basic job description for our next Secretary of Education...

✔️ Be a champion for kids
✔️ Be a champion for teachers
✔️ Be a champion for public schools

Think I’m asking too much?

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

You’ll still collect your pay
Or you can choose to be awesome
And make someone’s day!

@JesseGavin1 Sorry for leaving you on read for so long 😆

[Josie Manternach @josmcq]

A 5th grader I’m tutoring came up with an initiative where she bakes on Fri to have a bake sale on Sat for a Black Lives Matter organization. She sends out a mass email on Fri and has developed a website to market it too. Yay for kids being awesome and education #virtuallearning

Great thread of fear based tactics on meat sales. Read up and eat beef 🥩

[Jeremy @TheJeremySolis]
