Putting grades in for first quarter and we’re all arguing about whether no-shows get zeros or fifties

And someone tells me not to worry about it, because “middle school grades don’t count anyways”

I wonder, then, why we give them out at all?

Since the #COVID__19 outbreak, I've asked 1000s of people to describe people who give themselves & others #PermissionToFeel. Here's what they shared. How about for #WorldMentalHealthDay we all commit to becoming an #EmotionScientist! @YaleEmotion @rulerapproach @caselorg @YaleCSC

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

All Christians and people of good will are today called to work not only for the abolition of the death penalty in all its forms, but also to work for the improvement of prison conditions, out of respect for the human dignity of persons deprived of their freedom.

In my twenty plus years of educating young people I've never had the opportunity to witness first hand such an emotional moment. In the midst of a pandemic and much uncertainty in the world today, love shines through! https://t.co/EKPCfY31XZ

“I believe that a good professor of engineering or sciences should re-earn the equivalent of a PhD every seven to ten years,” Robert Marks. And that was only the first few minutes of the podcast. https://t.co/dukV8x7qjM

The need to be seen, known & loved is so real, especially for our Ss during this time. Feeling comforted & having the skills to be vulnerable will help Ss work through emotions💚

Another amazing podcast by @BreneBrown w/ @marcbrackett on the topic of SEL in schools & in life🙌🏻
