Sometimes students are wrong, sometimes parents are wrong, sometimes teachers are wrong, and sometimes administrators are wrong. Your title or position doesn't make you right or wrong--being wrong makes you wrong. Own up to it and let's get better! #teachergoals

Learning how to improve play at our school = 3 days. Over 100 miles driven through Somerset, UK. 3 schools visited, 2 meetings sat in on, 1 meeting (ours) held and done.

This is really beautiful. And true.

“All life events are formative. All contribute to what we become, year by year, as we go on growing. As my friend the poet Kenneth Koch once said, “You aren’t the age you are. You are all the ages you ever have been!““

If you want to get better, always hire the best, even if that means shorter tenure overall. As a superintendent, I only hired direct reports that had the potential to develop into superintendents. I would rather have a great leader for 2 years than a mediocre leader for 20 years.

What if we taught students to use these devices 💻📱 as EMPATHY MACHINES? What if we taught students how to use digital tools to hear and understand the stories of others? Have we done our due diligence in teaching students to use these tools for GOOD? #ReadTheWorldNOW #SEL
