When uncertainty arises, we all want all of our questions answered immediately. In most cases, that is not possible as the uncertainty impacts us all & we all have to learn to adjust. They say patience is a virtue. Exercising it will save us a lot of angst and concern. #reynproud

YOU can change the climate and culture of your grade level, your department, your coaching staff, your school. If you are waiting for someone else to change it, you could be waiting forever.
