Congratulations to the graduates of IASA's first ever Level Up Leadership cohort! Fun experience today recognizing this awesome group of central office administrators.

@BethMooreLPM Meanwhile, in west central IL, I'm going to head to work in the morning after 8 inches of snow and wind chill of -36. 🤣

Something to remember before the kids get here:

They are not:
SPED kids
EIP kids
RTI kids
504 kids
"Those" kids
Low kids
_____ kids.

Kids are kids.
First, love them
Then learn them.
We don't love labels.
We love learners.
Love, believe & challenge ALL kids.

No excuses.

@BethMooreLPM Yes. I lost my mom three months ago and life will never be the same. A part of me is gone, and it will take some time to figure out how living forward looks from this point. I think it’s normal, natural, and we have to allow ourselves space and grace.

@AmonaVP She was right! 😉
