Hey principal, what are you encouraging the first two weeks of school? Relationships? Building community? Procedures? Common language? Family engagement? Connections? Remember the WHY...reach them, then we can teach them! #JoyfulLeaders

It’s going to be a great year! #theyaregrowingup #imgettingold

If you do only what you know and do it very, very well, chances are that you won't fail. You'll just stagnate, and that's failure by erosion. True failure is a mark of accomplishment in the sense that something new and different was tried.

A productive life is colorful, not monochromatic gray, and a person's progress can take on many different forms. Failure to achieve what you intended can often lead to an entirely different kind of success--maybe even to a better version of success than you ever imagined.

Other people’s opinions about you do not define your reality. What others say about you says more about them than it does about you. What really matters is what you say about you. Believe in yourself. Be willing to stretch yourself. Who knows what might be possible for you?

Great leaders..... -Small ego, big mission. -We before me. -A lot of love and accountability. -A lot of grace and truth. -Demanding but not demeaning. -Loving but not enabling. -Shout praise. Whisper criticism. -High standards, low tolerance for excuses.

#ThoughtForTheDay Ever reached a point where a student’s tardiness, chronic absenteeism, lack of effort, or immature behavior frustrated or upset you, but when you learned their full story it broke your heart? See these behaviors as starting points, not ending points. #Culturize

Today's the day. Join as at Noon EST to listen to Wormeli, Jung, O'Connor, and Guskey share their thinking about your questions. Topic: A New Normal: Assessment & Distance Learning. docs.google.com/document/d/105…

Be a dispenser of grace....In ur home. In ur marriage. In ur parenting. Relax. Release them from your rigid expectations. Life’s too short for the tension that those create. Instead....give GRACE as often as you can. 💜 God keeps on giving it to us...we don’t deserve it either.

The situation that's so hurtful? Free yourself from taking things into your own hands. And don't let your feelings be your Holy Spirit & lead you to board the crazy train. Ask God to help you live like you trust Him. Hand it all over to Him. And believe He will guide & help you.

For ‘20-21, we are ALL 1st year teachers, counselors, principals, assistant principals, & superintendents. None of us have ever experienced what we are going to endure & accomplish this year. We are all in this TOGETHER. We’ll be our best. #edchat #LeadUpChat #LNCPride #nced

Because we serve a trustworthy God whose plans are much grander than ours, we can get our hopes up!

Learning with and from colleagues is a joyful result of teaching!

Family is what it’s all about! #greatday instagram.com/p/COoBCgKgOYpA…
