Teacher retention is a national problem does not explain away poor leadership and education policies at the local level. Solutions please!

The hope for charter schools being the solution died with schools competing for enrollment, thus leaving school leaders beholding to parents and students in ways that have diminished their ability to impact.

How should you choose a school for your child? Start by asking the school leader, 'Would you send your child to this school?'

Teacher retention: if you want to keep the best teachers, treat them like they are the best. Few teachers leave an environment where they feel valued, supported, appreciated, and treated like professionals. This is more important now than ever!

Let’s be real real: Sometimes ‘rigor, relevance, and relationships’ aren’t enough to do the teaching. In the coming year(s), there will be more students who need so much more and our educators and systems just aren’t adequately prepared to give those students what they need.

Are you a passionate teacher but leaving the profession because of the state of education today? Consider becoming an EDUpreneur and run your own Tiny School (aka learning pod)! Sign up for more information at bit.ly/TinySchools

I haven't done my research, but I am pretty sure the only reason kids are in school 5 days a week is because parents work 5 days a week. So does that make school a childcare facility or a place for learning? Just asking.

Adding and subtracting fractions takes a lot of mental bandwidth. I don't know when you should teach it, but I know that at 10 years old I still believed that the MJ Thriller video was real. I wasn't ready to find the common denominator.

As a teacher, you are either engaged in incarceration prevention or incarceration expansion.

It's a teachers' market in education. Y'all better demand your worth.

Most schools get no funding for celebrations. Admins typically spend months before Teacher Appreciation Week asking for donations and planning fundraisers and still often have to spend out of their own pockets to give every teacher something. Be grateful.
