What type of teammate do you like playing with? Be that type of teammate yourself. – John Calipari

To the teachers who are really struggling, don’t make long term decisions based on short term chaos. If you are overwhelmed then you may feel like giving up, quitting, or even retiring. Get through this, back to a good place mentally & emotionally before making those decisions

“because we are here and will remain to pick up the pieces of trauma, confusion, isolation and social awkwardness this virus is determined to leave behind for students across the world.”

More work, but more meaningful work for the students who need us more than ever.

We are all “Stuck Between Two Worlds.” Awesome job by students and staff to set up another special Book Day with @adibkhorram to discuss his book “Darius The Great is Not Okay.” @sarahewasser @SHSLIBRARY101 Amanda Barney @jdurante8 @SyoMrSteinberg

Students probably wont remember what was taught specifically during this pandemic, but they will remember how their teachers cared for them and checked on them. Much like how I still remember my teachers from decades ago.

Teachers, remember you are not in competition with each other, but you're on the same team. And admin shouldn’t be the only ones to encourage, support, & inspire. Motivate each other! Build each other up, including staff and your administrators.

Be a builder, not a believer. - The Person You Mean To Be, Dolly Chugh (she/her)

A1: I don’t know why, but your quote reminded me that the most effective educational leaders I know didn’t leave the classroom because they wanted to lead. They wanted to lead to make others never want to leave the classroom. They didn’t wait until they had nothing left. #822chat
