We can’t control the home environment of our students, but we can surely control their classroom environment. When they’re under our care, they can feel safe, feel supported, and feel loved.

Holly McCall Adam Friedman Tennessee Lookout || tnlookout.bsky.social The problem is that you don’t fail a TCAP test. It’s not a test that is intended to be pass or fail.
