I interviewed a candidate for an asst. principal position last week. He had experience in the classroom, knew his data, admin internship, certs... He said he was in the AP pool in four districts, but no principal gave him a chance. Well, that all changes July 1st! #liftasyouclimb

Parent: Can you recommend a book?
Me: For . . . ?
P: My 14-yr-old son. He really hates reading.
Me: What have you tried with him?
P: Me? Oh, I hate to read. Just tell me what to get him.
Me: Sigh

Any others want to join me in wine or beating head against wall? Both?
