“The test of a good teacher is not how many questions he can ask his pupils that they will answer readily, but how many questions he inspires them to ask him...” ~ Alice Wellington Rollins in #InnovateInsideTheBox

There is tremendous responsibility in our calling. Edmond Doyle #oklaed McAlester Athletics

Great TEACHERS don’t teach to a test. They use an assessment to steer their TEACHING!

@MHortonLeads Totally, I have teachers all the time ask about how I deal with kids. You know how, make my classroom their “favorite.” When they love walking in behavior problems just stopped at the door!

We’re capable of more than we think.

Passion to make an IMPACT, ENERGY, and high STUDENT ENGAGEMENT can change the game in any classroom! So bring the energy and make your classroom a place students WANT to be! #FamilyFeud #flhornets #NextLevelTeaching #relentless #tlap #DBCincBooks

Students will match the ENERGY and PASSION we bring to each lesson! So bring that PASSION to ignite a LOVE of LEARNING... and bring their educational experiences to life! #FLHornets #NextLevelTeaching #Relentless #DBCincBooks #tlap #leadlap

Send up a prayer for your superintendent tonight. They are navigating uncharted waters right now.

.Joy Hofmeister: We have flexibility w/ our testing vendors; we will use federal waivers. We're not going to ask kids to come & be assessed under these circumstances; would not be the right thing. Won't hesitate making that call. But right now, we're just looking at Apr 6 #oklaed

Such a powerful and emotional video... If this doesn’t give you a jolt of energy and to know your WHY... I can’t help you. This is why we do what we do.

When I find myself in tough conversations, when I am being held accountable, when I am called to unlearn, relearn, or just learn — This is my mantra. It’s been a game-changer. Less armor. More learning.

A big key to success in life is to be a life long learner. See everyone as a teacher and learn from everyone you meet. Be open to new ideas. If you fail, fail forward and use it as an opportunity to learn and grow.

Great Teams... -Stay Positive through challenges -Celebrate the small wins -Learn from failures -Never give up -Fight for, not against each other -Always strive to improve -Embrace feedback to grow -Want to be tested -Believe the best is yet to come

Loving your team also means you challenge them to reach their full potential. If you love someone you don't let them settle for anything but their best. You speak life and truth to them to help them grow.
