Reflecting on the plane after presenting at the Vegas PLC Institute.
Over 2000 people there to learn about PLC practices. It works… we have evidence…just do it! Stop making excuses… our students need us to now! What story do you want to tell a year from now? Make it happen!

We need to stop waiting for kids to fall of a cliff to give them the reading help they need and deserve.
It’s Teacher Appreciation Week!
To celebrate, I’m giving away two class sets of A Work in Progress, one here and one on Instagram.

Leaders are not super heroes, but they need to Land Like Superman… ready to take on whatever comes their way at any given moment! I picture the guiding coalition standing ready behind him!
