Do schools need increased funding?
𝐘𝐄𝐒!

Do schools need to do a better job at allocating their current funding?
𝐘𝐄𝐒!

•Stop hiring consultants
•We need more teachers, student supports
•We also need to increase their salaries so we don’t continue losing quality teachers

Asking for help is not a sign of weakness, but a sign of confidence. Your focus is on improving not on impressions.

Teacher/staff morale should be a priority of every school district this fall. No Excuses.

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Love what you teach, but love WHO you teach more.

Just know that when teachers post that they can't wait to put this school year behind them it is NOT because we don't love teaching and our students. It means that this year has been so overwhelming that we are on the brink of breaking down and need a break.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

Kindness matters.
But kindness does not = justice.

Civility counts.
But calling for civility is not the humane response to injustice.
Justice is.

Love is essential.
But love is not a passive, weeping bystander.

It takes time to become a highly effective teacher. It also takes time to become a highly effective leader. Both need patience, support, encouragement, praise and effective mentoring.

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

Educators....
The ability to stay calm, polite, and remain an advocate for kids even when people upset you, is your SUPERPOWER.
