Teachers are working harder than ever. 💯

#ThoughtForTheDay Cultures of compliance are not beneficial nor are they healthy over time. How can we help students & staff see the value, the good, & the benefit in something so they are more apt to invest in it rather than comply out of fear of being “punished?” #Culturize

Teacher retention: if you want to keep the best teachers, treat them like they are the best. Few teachers leave an environment where they feel valued, supported, appreciated, and treated like professionals.

It might not be pretty but we got this. 🙌

I take such offense when I tell people I work in a high school and they’re like “OMGGGGGG GOD BLESS YOU HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH TEENAGERS THEY ARE THE WORST” Lol like what. They are the best. Full stop.

It’s great to be able to see the “big picture”. But I think that perspective is only valuable if you also see all the people in that picture... cause they’re the most important part.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

When someone around you screws up, and they already feel bad about it... it’s usually not constructive to kick them when they’re down.

Sometimes, grace is more transformative than justice.

You didn't get trained to be a remote teacher in college.

You didn't get taught remotely when you were growing up.

Give yourself a break. You will get better over time.

For adults. For kids. For all of us.

Some leaders think students are priority over teachers, & I get the sentiment, but how much time do they spend w/ students & how well do you know them? Teachers spend all day w/them & know them well. Teachers make students a priority. Take care of teachers; they take care of kids

“Understand that some days will not work out the way you want them to, so it is okay to start again tomorrow...Sometimes walking away, taking a break, doing something else, and starting again tomorrow is the best thing to do.”

My choice was @staceyabrams but Biden's choice doesn't surprise me. I'll live with it. I just hope this ticket is strong enough to win. These are desperate times with the absolute worst possible individual in the role of president.

This. 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️

Admin, the best way to advocate for your students is to advocate for your teachers. Take care of the ones who take care of the kids.

As the new school year starts, I challenge educators to build meaningful relationships and show grace with your students. These past few months have been challenging for everyone. #Hackingschooldiscipline #RDP #BeAChampion

#ThoughtForTheDay Always remember that if you are in the right place with the right people you will always feel inspired. If you are not inspired don't lose hope. It just means you are not in the right place...for now. #LiveYourExcellence
