[Evan Robb @ERobbPrincipal]

The school principal sets the tone for a school. A tone of intentional risk-taking and innovation or a tone of rigid compliance. It is the principal who can stifle creativity, imagination, and risk-taking or empower staff to find their greatness…right now

Sunday night food prep 💪 Lean protein sources are always the priority. My choices for this week are great when in a time crunch. 👍 Cook it all at one time. Toss it in the fridge. Take out what you need each day.… https://t.co/uXpiL4umUS

Today a boy said, “You love us difficult kids huh?” I replied, “Difficult? Wouldn’t describe you that way. ‘Strong’, ‘resilient’, ‘full of gifts to share’. That’s what I see when I look at you.”

He cried, “I wish every hurt kid knew someone saw that in them.”

Me too. #LoveWorks

"Every great person you admire didn’t succeed because of one giant move, but because of a series of consistent actions over time. Success is more about endurance and sustainability. Top performers focus more on the process, not just on the outcome." https://t.co/Lw2P3V9bbC

"As administrators, we have to look at our policies and “rules” in place within our school and see if they are putting our teachers in a place where we are pushing them to follow the rule over serving their students." - 10 Core Values for Education https://t.co/dCx3dViKKi

"Educators, no matter their role, do not simply have full plates but full platters, and they are overflowing...Always ask when considering a new change for implementation: Am I adding to the person or adding to the plate?" #InnovateInsideTheBox https://t.co/fyQYQUtssu

"If you can’t clearly articulate the benefit to learners, then the “change” is probably not necessary. Always ask when considering a new change for implementation: Am I adding to the person or adding to the plate?" - #InnovateInsideTheBox https://t.co/KMAGORqmRr

“Textbooks, programs, and strategies are tools. Teachers are designers, building learning experiences for the students in their midst. Be careful that the tool does not become more important than the design.” @kat_goyette https://t.co/YhTyeGk1NW

"Being an innovative school/teacher doesn’t mean you abandon the basics, it means you're focused on going further than what only teaching the basics could provide." The ideas of "basics" and "innovation" is not an either/or scenario. #InnovateInsideTheBox https://t.co/KMAGORqmRr
