Principals … here’s an awesome ice breaker your teachers are guaranteed to love…it’s called “Go work in your classroom.” #edutwitter

Huge thank you to the amazing teachers & staff at @LibertyvilleD70 for the support, guidance & wonderful education! Because of the foundation you've provided my oldest will soar next year in HS. I'm bias but @LHS128Principal you are getting a terrific group of freshmen! 🧡🖤

@MrsGeltnerVHHS Is this why all my AmStudies kids were playing Tetris today 🤣 but seriously such a cool lesson!

[Amanda Carroll @MsCarrollSS]

Wrapped up our "Make it Stick" series showcasing the amazing ways teachers are using retrieval practice, interleaving, elaboration, & think you can in their own spaces! As always blown away with our amazing staff. #VHWay #inhousePL @vhkclarkelcsw @WattersEdu @MsGarciaVHHS

Love this hands-on, interactive, learning experience! This is what you get when you have talented, creative educators who can create curriculum and tailor learning experiences to their students. Keep up the great work.

Our Gatsby Funeral was a success! Students wrote and performed their in-character eulogies/elogies. Ms. Randle created beautiful program and read Gatsby’s obituary. The student engagement was amazing! #vhway #DARING

Love this along with one of my favorite quotes "the biggest concern for any organization should be when their most passionate people become quiet".

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

"Don't argue with the boss" is not a demand for respect. It's a sign of a fragile ego.

Insecure leaders silence dissent to shield their self-esteem and save face. Secure leaders welcome critiques to improve their judgment.

Being open to challenges is a prerequisite for growth.

So much fun being a member of the jury in @VHBaranyK Law Class today along with several teachers who took time from their busy day. Students demonstrated strong knowledge and understanding of the case and class concepts.

@BusEdCrev @actecareertech You got this!!!

[Amanda Carroll @MsCarrollSS]

American Studies students visited the @ihmec on Monday. So grateful that field trips have returned and students are able to have these shared experiences again. @SiobhanSzabo1 @PFriedrich6

Don't think morale is important for adults? Do you think students learn better in a classroom where the teacher is valued, appreciated, supported, and celebrated, or a classroom where the teacher feels isolated, disrespected and hanging on by a thread?

@mradamwelcome My AP @JoeOBedu would be perfect!
