Family, I’m hitting the road again, heading to one of my favorite places and what I consider my second home, Nebraska! Tomorrow, I’ve been invited to a school book fair in Omaha , where I’ll also have the opportunity to speak with middle school students about our 50 Yard Challenge. I’m excited to share our mission and hopefully inspire more young people to make a difference in their communities!

Afterward, I’ll head to Fort Dodge, Iowa, to finally meet two amazing brothers who completed our 50 Yard Challenge a few weeks ago. I was supposed to visit them during my Breast Cancer Awareness Tour, but one of the brothers had undergone heart surgery. Thankfully, he’s now recovered! The two lawnmowers stolen from my van in Louisiana were actually meant for these brothers. I’m grateful that I’ll finally get to meet them Friday morning, present their equipment, and celebrate their accomplishment before heading home to Huntsville, Alabama!

@lecternleader you should go back to jail for that

Once a soldier, always a soldier. Happy Veterans Day to my fellow veterans and your families. Proud to honor those who chose to serve something bigger than themselves.

God bless America. 🇺🇸

[Phil Labonte 🇺🇸 @philthatremains]

this is legitimately brilliant. Nick is a national treasure.

@sanevoice53 @educator4ever36 Today a student was denied an IEP. The mother expressed that she thought that if he had an IEP he couldn’t get suspended. This was in response to his current 5 day suspension. Yeah, parents need some education.

Behavior minutes are snacks, walks, naps, special lunches & sitting on a beanbag chair on a cozy rug. Academic minutes are test answers while listening to music & a candy reward for actually finishing. And a a squishy for both.

[Lisa Sikes @LisaSikessldd]

American schools give out IEP’s & 504’s like candy. Kids are allotted academic minutes, behavior minutes. Guess what? Nearly 100% of students always meet their goals. B/c if they don’t the school loses funding.

[Lisa Sikes @LisaSikessldd]

@ConceptualJames Behavior plans are mostly male. ISS and OSS are predominantly male students. They aren’t close to the majority of students but they get the most attention.

[Lisa Sikes @LisaSikessldd]

@ConceptualJames In general you may be right. However, it may be b/c those who choose to do right are ignored in education. Priority is given to, mostly male students, who constantly disrupt the learning environment.

Dear non-Orthodox Christians,

The Nativity Fast begins Nov. 15. You can eat and drink whatever you want in front of us.

Since when did teaching boys to WANT marriage and family become controversial?!

We’re raising boys to be independent, but NOT selfish! There’s nothing wrong with teaching young men to look forward to love, marriage, and building a family!

@Nafeesahxf Dear Muslims please respect my hypoglycemia. It’s a medical condition.

@HelpATeacher Sat in a resource math class where “ Is it rise or run?” was repeated at least 20 times. Then they went to lunch.

[Help A Teacher @HelpATeacher]

Sounds about right.

[Lisa Sikes @LisaSikessldd]

@Dadsaysjokes I used it with my kids as well.

[Lisa Sikes @LisaSikessldd]

@ZillennialApple The thing is that when they’re suspended THE STATE provides them with an online education. If that isn’t taken advantage of who is to blame???

[Lisa Sikes @LisaSikessldd]

@bulllaw How? Kids with IEP’s or 504’s have separate testing. Kids remaining who can’t keep quiet are set to recovery. And not for nothing who doesn’t experience stress at their job?
