Ret. Superintendent of Buttonwillow School District-Former President of Small School Districts' Assoc. for CA-Currently consulting at Education Market Experts
Great conference put on by @txrea They do a great job of showing and highlighting the strengths and successes of rural schools throughout Texas. Thanks for letting both myself and Education Market Experts be a part of the conference.
@paulbmeyers Loved the challenges, the professional relationships, building something newer and better as a Supt and Principal. But teaching offered some great rewards and fun before they had a microscope put on it by people who didn't know education.
I retired one year ago after 35 years in education. This past week I received a message from a student I had 34 years ago. Her son is in 6th grade. She hopes her son's 6th grade is as good as hers. You may never know your impact, then it may take 34 years. Respect our educators.
To all the teachers who have helped shape our lives, been there for us in tough times, inspired us to reach our highest potential: We're so grateful, this week & every week, for all you do to help your students succeed.

@EdgarZazueta@CalMatters@ACSA_info Thank you for sharing the article by Carolyn Jones. It is imperative people realize there are over 600 small school districts in CA. The great majority of those are rural and should not be an after thought in many areas of the state's decision making. @ericbonniksen
Honored to have attended the groundbreaking of @ButtonwillowUSD 's Early Ed & Resource Center. 7 of my last 12 years as supt was spent aligning finances & early ed planning. TY to the school board & Supt @Admmom for great leadership. @RepDavidValadao@ACSARegion_11@ACSA_info
Further evidence that states need to focus as much on small and/or rural as they do on urban. All kids matter.

Great to be in Chattanooga repping Education Market Experts. It is always nice to hear the inspirational comments, and then spend some time with @Joe_Sanfelippo. His thoughts and ideas inspired many of the positive changes @ButtonwillowUSD .
Headed to Chattanooga to spend time with leaders, educators, and partners that focus on rural education. Proud to be part of the Education Innovation Experts team.
@Joe_Sanfelippo@casas_jimmy@kheilacasas A great city to enjoy a game. Our daughter is finishing up her teaching credential in Pittsburgh. We have enjoyed every trip back there.
@paulbmeyers A company by the name of Education Market Experts. We connect “eduprenuers” with district admin to solicit opinions on new, but vetted products. At least that is my portion of the company. Stay in touch. Hope retirement has been good for you as well.
Wonderful opportunity to be attending the California City Schools Superintendent Conference in Burlingame. Great presentation on AI and use in schools. Nice to be repping Education Market Experts.

Thank you Tom O' Malley for being an incredible leader that focuses on kids first. There's a hidden crisis among California's rural kids. Would this teen make it? https://t.co/qDKQkYrh87
Headed to Flagstaff, AZ to represent Education Market Experts at the annual Arizona Rural Schools Conference. Looking forward to connecting with associations, "edupreneurs", and other educators who care about our schools in rural areas.
Thank you @davidarencibia and @JulieBoesch for putting on a great kickoff to our mentoring program. Great way to get the @SmallSchoolDA conference started in Newport. I'm just glad an electric pump showed up.😁😁
An absolute honor to stand alongside these extraordinary leaders of leaders! Grateful for the invaluable time spent fostering connections and cultivating a positive culture. Huge thanks to @JulieBoesch, @CCEECA@SmallSchoolDA for making this experience possible! #CultureMatters🙌
