Here's a tool to take one thing off your psychologist's plate. AND, lift the voices of students in your daily announcements or classroom circles. https://t.co/QJ0WvxKxEp

Thank you, school psychologists!

Through your expertise, support, & caring, you help students & school communities be their best academically, socially, emotionally, & mentally.

What is one trait that makes someone a good friend?

THIS! One way to support all kids is to model and teach self care through a daily dose of bite-sized SEL. Check out this tool. It works! https://t.co/QJ0WvxKxEp

[Dr. Bryan Pearlman #MaslowBeforeBloom @DrP_Principal]

There are no BAD kids! There are kids who:
-have been traumatized
-have little hope for the future
-have never experienced success, love or joy
-have been repeatedly disappointed by adults
-have not learned how to regulate their emotions

It is NEVER too late to help a kid who is struggling!

@drvbryant @caselorg @SEL_APS @apsupdate Thank you for so much great leadership and inspiration!

"Recognize room for improvement" is the essence of daily self-care and compassion for others. That's the message of Wise from Within, a daily dose of growth mindset for students grades K-12. https://t.co/QJ0WvxKxEp

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Humility isn't a sign of low self-esteem. It's a mark of high self-awareness.

The goal isn't to deny your strengths. It's to see your strengths & shortcomings accurately. The first rule of improvement: recognize room for improvement.

Narcissism feeds ego. Humility fuels growth.
