This. This is what support looks like. When your Supt stops by to check in on your school & he jumps in to fix the chairs in your office. In the middle of a pandemic, in the middle of a staffing shortage, when he just subbed for a classroom teacher. Grateful for servant leaders.

Woohoo! Way to go Russell! 🙌💜

We have the most amazing teachers at Roadrunner. Every single kid got a personalized, hand-written note from their teacher waiting for them on their desk when they had a sub today.💜 Courtney Mallada

Ahhh Beth Green 📗!! LOVE this and you! 💜💜

My daughter came home from preschool with some mysterious items in her backpack which apparently were “special gifts from my best friend.” Because nothing says friendship like a pair of red socks and an old watch. I just love kids. 💜

Love my MD hippos and these sweet faces! 💜🦛

Sooo great! 👏💜

"It sounds like the pain you feel isn't coming from the fact that you're considering leaving teaching, but rather that you've lost something you once loved tremendously and can't figure out how to find your way back." On trying to love teaching again: teacher-totter.blogspot.com/2023/01/redisc…

Come join our team! #WESDFamily

And black and white to boot! Love our RR fam! 💜💜💜

🧵 Anytime I work with a district to support grading and assessment practices, inevitably one of the first questions they want to know is how to start introducing standards-based grading to their team. My answer: Well, first, don’t open with “standards-based grading.” 1/
