#ThoughtForTheDay Don't get sucked into the minutia of the daily grind & fall into the trap of dealing w/trivial things that drain your energy & overfill your cup. Empty your cup, shift your focus & refill your cup by reaching out & helping others...via #Culturize

I don’t understand why giving kids the opportunity to try, get feedback, and try again during football practice is considered good coaching, but giving kids a chance to try, get feedback, and retest in an academic course is enabling? #AmImissingsomething?

Great reflection questions to use while planning lessons that engage all learners. I love the idea of a “Redesign Pivot!” #4ShiftsProtocol ⁦Scott McLeod⁩ dangerouslyirrelevant.org/2019/07/9-ques…

No goal worth achieving is easy. The path to any kind of excellence is always paved with obstacles. Grit comes from learning to see the struggle as a challenge—a test of resolve. Keep rising to the occasion, and eventually you wind up looking forward to it. #FridayMotivation

Congratulations to seniors, Maggie O'Neill and Joe Taylor, for being selected as NPHS Triple A Award winners! The winners must be seniors and excel in Academics, Arts, and Athletics. Maggie and Joe are great representatives of all 3 of these areas.
