A true blessing to be an educator and have the ability to unlock potential in our young people! The compassion and connections are needed! Thank you! #MeetTheirNeeds
What a gift that @Principal_EL shared this excerpt from his new book in this @ASCD article. A heartfelt reminder of the power of compassion & connection in education. Grateful to have received an advanced copy & proud to have endorsed it! #MeetTheirNeeds

Last week, I was blessed to immerse in learning with leaders from across Texas at TEPSA. I had the chance to fan girl with @mrronclark_ , be encouraged by @Principal_EL and connect with @TABSE_Texas leaders. Ready to use the tools I've added to support kids and teachers!
The 2026 TEPSA Conference has concluded. Man what a week!! I looooove working for TEPSA, but when we get to bring over 2000 leaders together in one place (with just a staff of 11 of us!) it truly is magical. And this TEPSA team truly is the best on the planet.
I got to debut TWO brand new sessions. I was able to learn from some of my favorite people (who if you aren’t following them you’re missing out): @educationhall@casas_jimmy@mrronclark_@JessicaCabeen@the_MrBraun@Principal_EL@jbmrkelly and so many other incredible leaders, and I was able to reconnect face to face with many friends.
Though I leave exhausted….and with kids who had WAY too much at the water park without me….I am so thankful of the countless reminders of the great work happening in schools across Texas and the rest of the country.
Until next year!!!
Our closing keynote speaker has a book out you'll definitely want to add to your pile! Don't miss learning IN PERSON from Salome Thomas-EL this Summer at the TEPSA Summer Conference!

Spending the last few days at the BOND conference has been the "soul work" I didn’t know I needed. Seeing some of my favorite people connect, share, and pour out their passion has my heart on fire! @missreed@okitchen32@Principal_EL 🤎
