We spend millions to implement research based practices. BUT, we ignore the extensive research that shows how play, recess, & physical activity, can improve focus, self regulation, and on task behavior, as well as academic achievement, interpersonal skills & mental health.

When an effective leader needs to see a teacher, they let them know why before hand, so they didn't worry why all day or all weekend. Sometimes its the little things that show the most respect!

Great life advice! 🙌

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!

Lee Iaccoca once said, I hire smart people & then get out of their way. He also put line workers on the board! He knew his staff knew more about doing their job than he did. Administrators, remember, some may need mentoring, but most just need encouragement and support!

There's no standard student and there's no standard teacher. Everyone has talents, passions and the potential to be amazing. ~via 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧

Standardized tests have only one correct answer. However most things in life don't have only one solution.

Doctor's don't get paid based on the success of their patients, but they get paid for their expertise and experience, as a professional should. Teachers should also get paid for their expertise and experience, as a professional should.
