Remember... The mountain, no matter how big it is, is no match for your faith and desire to climb it. Mountains are meant to be climbed. Wounds are meant to be healed and problems are meant to become learning experiences. They all serve a purpose. They make us stronger.

Sometimes kids push their boundaries. That’s what they do. Most adults were kids once. It’s good to remember. We hold kids accountable… but we still can show grace; we can still demonstrate compassion; and we always respect their dignity.

I had a wonderful opportunity. Most of you don’t know that I had the “privilege” of repeating the 2nd grade. Yes, it really was the best 2 years of my young life. Howard Gardner said it well, “it’s not how smart you are…it’s how you’re smart”. Smart different is still smart.

"My family went from segregation to the Supreme Court in one generation," Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson says at the White House. "I am the dream and hope of the slave," she adds, quoting Maya Angelou.

The Scripture says, “Stand still and you will see the deliverance of the Lord.” Keep doing the right thing, honoring God, and He’ll take care of what’s stopping you. He’ll move people out of the way, He’ll silence the opposition, He’ll say, “Peace be still.”

A4: It starts with our own perceptions! Do we see each member of our team as adding value? If we do, we treat them as such and honor their voice and choice. If we don't, we can be dismissive and build barriers in our relationships. #LeadLAP

People ask what will praying do? Why does God allow this? Evil exists and we need to turn to a greater power to overcome it.

Overwhelmed with sadness for Uvalde - for the moms and dads, brothers and sisters, grandmas and grandpas, aunts and uncles, cousins, playmates, friends, classmates, and teachers - this tragedy is unfathomable.🖤

Eva Mireles and Irma Garcia were two of the greatest teachers Uvalde, TX has ever known. Their classroom was full of fun, growth, giggles, teamwork, and, most of all, love. Their legacy will live in the hearts of our community forever. #uvaldestrong

I feel like I’m constantly walking up a steep hill as I work tirelessly to help our students’ mental health, because we as a society refuse to make any substantial changes to impact the culture that has created such fear and trauma.

The real learning loss from the pandemic has been social and emotional skills. Such as making and maintaining friendships, participating in group projects, and regulation of emotions. Students need unstructured play, recess, and group interaction more than ever.

Cynicism: We have a problem, but they don't want to solve it Pessimism: We have a problem, but we can't solve it Optimism: We have a problem, and we can solve it Responsibility: We have a problem. Can I help solve it? Initiative: We have a problem. Here's how I'm solving it

Emotionally intelligent leadership will result in better outcomes by developing commitment instead of compliance. When people are committed, they go above and beyond because they find joy in what they do. In compliance-driven cultures, people do what is needed to get by.

🧵 Good morning Twitter world! Let’s talk about school safety, specifically morning drop off Round Rock ISD I’m hoping for some help in getting the word out. This week Berkman AIA we almost had two administrators hit by vehicles for failing to comply with directions of a school…

UPDATE: I received a phone call from Round Rock ISD sup and have been told a timeline and plan is being developed. Will receive a follow up call once plan is finalized. I will be following up myself as well. Thank you Round Rock ISD

The #WeAreBerkmanPTA is immensely grateful for the presence of @Weserve_protect in helping ensure the safety of our students, educators, and community. You are appreciated #RRISD

Helping out with morning drop off duty 💪🏼 What a crew!
