The Helpers
If someone is sad,
take them aside.
Find out why they’re
hurting inside.
Be a good friend.
Help their heart mend.
Then go to the next
person,
& do it again.

Dedicated to the helpers.
Students are looking for relationships. If we take the time to truly understand what they need and really connect, we can be the reason they feel valued. We can be the heartbeats to keep them going.
Don’t underestimate your ability to impact. Go be a heartbeat. ❤️
Much Love 🫶
It’s that time of year: State testing has arrived. My blog post is a reminder to breathe. The story is much longer than the snapshot score that appears in a few months.
There are too many parts to the story that tests simply can’t measure.
Much Love!

My buddy, @MrCondranHPE, made and sent this to me over the weekend. I told students this each morning. I meant it every day.
I’m not going to lie. I teared up seeing it. Please let your students know that you love them. Let them know they matter. It makes a difference. Promise.
What we can see is not the entire story. Those we come in contact with, especially our students, are working through their own challenges. Some they’ll share with us, some they won’t. Look closer. Ask questions. Love them. But don’t let one moment define them. #MuchLove
@MikeAzzalina Love this and all your perspectives, they are amazing reminders of how we not only need to have grace for our students and those around us... but also to have grace on ourselves; I know I fall guilty of letting that one moment of my mistake define my whole day!
