Ed admins- stay the course in April and May. Keep showing up in classrooms… recognize effective moves, discern talent, determine each teacher’s unique next level. Great teachers are retained in schools where admins know what great teaching looks like! 5 good look-fors here.

Here’s why my Delaware Elementary school staff is the best. On Monday, a SPED para left this fake spider outside my office (he *knows * how I feel about spiders 🕷️). This morning, I came in to find another staff member decided to keep me safe by placing a cup over the fake spider. 😂

Two truths and a lie. 😂 #NationalPrincipalsDay

Our Hickory Hills School 7/8th graders are having a great time walking the red carpet at the spring formal!

On April 3, Olinda Osborn kept 13 Springfield Public Schools students safe when an intruder forced himself on her bus. We will never be able to fully thank her for her bravery, but were glad to honor her with a resolution from the House and Senate. We are so deeply thankful! Melanie Stinnett

All. Spring. Long. Sigh.
