What does true educator rest and recovery look like? It means time for hobbies, family, self-care, and simply being without the weight of classroom responsibilities. Policies must support this, not hinder it. Let's champion a culture of sustainability. #EducatorSupport

As we head into summer, let's advocate for systemic changes that safeguard educators' ability to recharge. Their well-being isn't just an individual concern; it's the bedrock of our education system. Let's commit to ending #ClassroomsInCrisis by supporting those who lead them.

Summer PD isn't about filling every minute, it's about strategic growth. Invest in skills that renew your purpose, not just your lesson plans. Re-tool to re-energize! #education #classroomsincrisis

The best summer professional development equips you to tackle the crisis in our classrooms with renewed vigor. Choose wisely; your well-being depends on it. #education #classroomsincrisis

Think of summer PD as vital self-care. Learning new strategies reduces stress and boosts confidence. An effective educator is a healthy educator. #education #classroomsincrisis

Of course it is 20 feet from me in Tacoma.

Balance is key! Carve out dedicated time for professional growth, but fiercely protect your rest and recovery this summer. You can't pour from an empty cup. #education #classroomsincrisis

Connecting with fellow educators during summer PD reminds us we're not alone in the #classroomsincrisis. Share, learn, and build a stronger community. #education

Don't let summer professional development become another source of burnout. Seek out opportunities that truly inspire and empower you for the year ahead. #education #classroomsincrisis

A healthy summer plan includes both meaningful rest and targeted professional growth. One fuels the other, creating the resilient educators our students deserve. #education #classroomsincrisis

Is the "mental health crisis" among students a symptom of a broken system, or are we just blaming kids for reacting to outdated demands? What radical shifts must schools make to genuinely support student well-being, not just offer more counseling? #ClassroomsInCrisis

With AI permeating every aspect of life, why are so many schools still stuck in a "ban it" mindset? Are we preparing students for an AI-powered future, or are we perpetuating a digital divide by denying access and responsible integration? #AIinEducation #FutureOfLearning

Words matter. Every single thing you say, and how you say it matters. Especially if you are a leader or in a leadership role. Be aware of what you are saying and who is watching you, and listening, as you lead. #classroomsincrisis

We are back at that time of year again. The time when #teacehrs post a list about what they need for classroom supplies. But, the Feds are witholding $6 billion from #education. Why support a system with extra funds that doesn't support you? #classroomsincrisis

#Icebreakers I am in support of them with #educators are you? If you don't support them for teachers, don't tell me you support them for students. #classroomsincrisis

How is my weekend going? Moving apartments is always fun.

Just another windy day in Shanghai. Some call it a Tropical Storm. I call it a lot of rain and wind. Where I am from, we call this Wednesday.

Tropical storm seems to have passed through. Plenty of rain and a good washing for the city.

The city should post the new position with the job description and the pay of $15/ hour. See if they have any takers

A teacher was shocked after back to school night when I said I was going home to write an article for marketing rather than sleeping. Welcome to the world of admin.
