If a parent asks how they can help their child succeed in school, please start with the BASICS:

•𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐩…8-10 hours

•𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐍𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧…must limit sugar

•𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐦…let them fail without quickly trying to save them

•𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐀𝐭 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭 30 𝐦𝐢𝐧/𝐝𝐚𝐲…preferably something they want to read! 📖

•𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞/𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲…helps kids with several life skills including problem solving & sharing

@hwinkler4real Happy Hanukkah! You inspire so many! Thank you for your kindness and your happy posts!

It’s official: Coffee with the Custodian is now available for PREORDER.
And there is NOTHING else like it.
Most leadership books talk at you.
This one speaks to you—because it’s a story about real people and real leadership.

It’s the first leadership EduFable™ ever written. It shows that leadership isn’t about being in charge. It’s about how you treat people, how you show up, and how you build trust in the everyday moments that matter.
👉 Includes a complete Study Guide for principals, APs, teams, and district PD.

If you believe education is a people business… this one’s for you.
