Pride is concerned with who is right.... Humility is concerned with what is right.

Home visits to all but 4 of my students today to deliver any supplies they were missing, math packets they weren’t able to pick up, & a little treat. Seeing their eyes light up when they saw me refueled my overwhelmed heart! ❤️ #nnpsproud #heartwork

If they praise you, SHOW UP and DO THE WORK. If they criticize you, SHOW UP and DO THE WORK. If no one even notices you, just SHOW UP and DO THE WORK. Just keep showing up, doing the work, and leading the way.

Virtual Day 2 - while a student was sharing at the end of the day, her siblings were arguing & then one dropped a muffled f bomb. I quickly hit mute. Virtual classrooms can still be a refuge of grace & peace. #wholechild #heartwork

Principals like for teachers to provide engaging lessons.

Well teachers & students like for their principal to provide engaging LEADERSHIP. It means walking around, having lots of conversations, being a cheerleader, working collaboratively, & caring about everyone in the school.

I knew it was going to come to this, but hearing him say it makes it real. My heart breaks today. We left school on a regular day, filled with smiles and hugs as we departed. It's like everything was left there frozen in time and a piece of my heart was left behind with it! 💔😭

Today, we announced turnkey waivers for states to bypass high-stakes standardized testing during the #COVID19 national emergency so they can instead focus on the immediate needs of their students and educators.

The words we speak matter. They help to shape the world around us. That’s why I believe we need to speak words of truth and hope not only to ourselves but to others as well. Here are 20 things we should say more often if we want to make the world more positive.

[Brad Weinstein @WeinsteinEdu]

Telling someone to 'get over it' or to 'calm down' doesn't teach them anything. It also doesn't help them...in fact, it might make the situation worse. We need to help kids through emotions!

This. In a world where unkindness & aggression can sometimes roar louder than compassion & empathy... and hatred sometimes speaks louder than love, God reminds us of the beauty that exists all around us. #love

My heart is heavy today as I think of 3 lives lost way too soon and everyone they leave behind. I’ll hug my daughter tighter & make sure my students know how loved they are. I pray for strength & comfort for Tabb, their families, friends, and the entire community. #TabbStrong

[Shannon Rawls @luv2teachVA]

@newsome_es That’s awesome! 👏👏👏

[Shannon Rawls @luv2teachVA]

Now that’s school spirit! I am so grateful for the memories my daughter is making at MHS. I love the timeless traditions that they keep alive. #NNPSProud

[Menchville HS @MenchvilleHS]

Perhaps the most comprehensive costume in Menchville's extensive Homecoming history - all 101 Dalmations and that evil, bad-habit-having Cruella DeVille, all showed up today.
Note: That is NOT a real cigarette and we do NOT promote Cruella's nasty habits or attitude.
