Parents:

They need the losses.
The bench time.
The struggle.

Stop stealing their growth opportunities.

Lead with humility. Serve with love. Let Him handle the rest.

Here’s the secret to building relationships:

Actually like kids

That’s it.

No fancy handshakes, no dancing and singing like a fool every morning. That stuff is for show and kids know it.

Just like kids. It’s easy. And if you don’t, find something else to do.

Be the coffee bean. Change the water around you by being useful in it.

Photo of a winter sunset and reflection in Tatum, Texas. The town of Tatum was settled in the 1840s by Albert and Mary C. Tatum, for whom it was named. When the Santa Fe line built through the region in 1885, lots were divided to become a town site.

Teaching during a pandemic is unbelievably stressful and absolutely draining.

Probably the most important thing for administrators… is never to lose sight of that.

Today, Mrs. Koch’s Kindergarten class visited the Panola County Veterans Museum and Memorial. They would like to thank Bill Morris for being their guide and telling them all about the artifacts in the museum! ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸 #WhereBulldogsBegin

If we want people to take pride in their work, we need to show them we value their work. If we want people to take initiative, we need to show them we value their contributions.

What gets validated, gets replicated.

[Damon West @damonwest7]

Stay in your lane.
Life is easier, and more productive, when we don’t look for the flaws in others.
We waste valuable time when we don’t spend our days being useful and working on our own flaws.

What you take time to notice gains value. Today I noticed a group of CISD teachers giving up part of their summer break to identify and ensure vertical alignment of essential learning targets. What have you noticed recently?
