Not many of us get to live to see our own legacy play out in such a meaningful, remarkable way. John Lewis did:

Parents worry too much about peer pressure—and too little about peer choice.

Data: grades go up when kids hang out with good students.

Peer influence is inevitable. Whether it's more helpful or harmful depends on the friends kids make.

When you face a choice between being polite and being honest, err on the side of the truth.

It's better to be disliked but respected than to be liked but disrespected.

In the long run, the people we trust the most are those who have the courage to be sincere.

Perhaps the single most powerful way to bring efficiency, focus and rigor to a classroom is by installing strong procedures and routines. You define a right way to do recurring tasks; you practice doing them with students so they roll like clockwork.

It’s the same with principals, teachers, and all educators. The idea that some educators reject feedback because theyre “professionals, should be trusted and don’t need it” is absurd. It’s oft not about distrust, it’s about continuous improvement to ensure student achievement.

If a student is developmentally ready to learn curriculum content, their lack of fluency in English should not keep them from doing so. What should you know about teaching English learners?

Discrimination, implicit biases, and the opportunity gap all hard at work here. https://t.co/EFtza53rjz

The biggest obstacle to kids achieving at school is that smartphone. Like all diseases, it hits the poor first & hardest. I make the case here: https://t.co/aNnDEJb0Le

Still trying to find the people who are anti-school choice and have their own child in a low performing school.
