This is such a true statement!! It takes a TRUE teacher to teach the students and understand that they are the true focus of the work!

Students falling asleep in class is an issue that I saw a significant increase in over the time I served as principal. As a staff, we had many conversations around this topic. What are your thoughts? yourtango.com/self/fifth-gra…

This is so true!! I always told my teachers.... "they won't remember their TCAP score, they will remember YOU!"

How would you respond if a student flipped you off? What if that student was a 1st grader? Here is one experience of dealing with just that! tooconsumed.com/i-love-you/

“Before you can solve a problem, you have to understand it. Too often, our schools try to solve the problem of student failure without understanding its root causes.” - Ruby K. Payne Maybe the real "problem" is the standardized test???

What are your thoughts?? Job-embedded teaching positions are growing like crazy, but I worry that there is not enough support being put in place for these positions.... especially in our high-needs schools!

Coming from someone who is an introvert and generally a fairly quiet person, this spoke to me. As leaders, we have to make sure all stakeholders have a voice!

Would you ever think to apply the word "feral" to a child? Unfortunately, this is becoming more and more common with the extreme behaviors schools are seeing. I'd love to hear your thoughts on how schools can deal with these situations! tooconsumed.com/feral/

This speaks the truth! We can never underestimate what our students have dealt with before we even see them! The same can be said for our teachers as well! Speak with KINDNESS!!
