6️⃣4️⃣ Hours. On Monday mornings, this is how long it has been since some kids have had any positive interaction with an adult. Whether you are a teacher, bus driver, custodian, principal, or _______, how you greet your kids in the morning matters. Be the light! #multiplyexcellence

Congratulations to the boys cross country team for qualifying for the state meet!

They will race next Friday in Fort Dodge.

Leadership is not about having power over others, and it definitely isn’t about telling people what to do. Being a leader means caring about the people you’re leading and focusing on their success more than your own. #edchat

Way to go Bluejays!

[Bondurant-Farrar Cross Country @BFBluejayxc]

This is a crucial role and we still need help!

[Emily Paschall @EmilyAPaschall]

It’s easy to get discouraged by *that kid* and say, “I didn’t sign up for this.” The reality? Yes. We did. We did sign up for this. We signed up to teach KIDS.
🔸*That kid* who is crying every morning when they get to school? We signed up for it.

🔻*That kid* who is in the 5th grade and still can’t read? We signed up for it.

🔸*That kid* who is soiling their pants every day? We signed up for it.

🔻*That kid* who destroyed your classroom? We signed up for it.

🔸*That kid* who cussed you out last week? We signed up for it.

🔻*That kid* who ________________? We signed up for it.

If what we are doing isn’t working, try something different. *That kid* is going to need a different pathway toward success - filled with more patience, more compassion, and a lot more love.

Think about *that kid* in your class right now. Is your heart and mind in the right place? Don’t allow them to become a spectacle in your school, among the kids, teachers, or parents. Don’t allow them to become the topic of conversation at the lunch table. Protect them from that. Love them enough to change their story!

@MrsSwearngin4D I love how you are continuing to practice and teach expectations! Keep up the awesome work.

@rsidwell @IMMC_Trauma @BF_District @acsSTOPTHEBLEED @AndrewTRAUma Thank you for your help with training our staff today! Very valuable life saving hands-on information and training!

[Dr. Marcia Tate @drmarciatate]

A good reminder as we start a new week! Not everything is under our control. Remember this as we go through the week, and I guarantee the week will feel a little less stressful than usual. Have a great week with your students! #edchat

These Anderson Bluejays have been demonstrating Bondurant’s BEST in the lunchroom during the month of January! Their tickets were drawn to take home the table decorations from the friend table! Thanks PTO for helping us decorate each month! @PbisAnderson

To become a truly great leader, you must become a servant leader.

PSA: You can’t intervene your way out of a Tier 1 problem. Explicit, systematically planned Tier 1 and 2 instruction is essential in order for Tier 3 to be fully effective.

Always reflect on Tier 1 and 2 first. #multiplyexcellence

Anderson Elementary celebrated our November students of the month. These students demonstrated staying safe all month and were terrific role models to peers. Way to go Bluejays. @PbisAnderson @AndersonBFCSD
