Continued blessings to you Erik and the impact you make on the lives of others.

KCP committed to cultivating positive attitudes and behaviors.

This was said in a private call to donors. Biden readily admitted it was a mistake for him to say "time to put Trump in a bullseye.” Willingness to admit one is wrong is an asset for a leader and not a weakness.

What we value, as evident in words & actions, define us & the relationships we have with others, whether personal or professional. I have learned that trust is not just about words; rather it represents actions that will build or destroy relationships. #charactercounts

Meaningful learning will not occur in character and values unless there are relationships that are meaningful, encouraged and inspired by engaged educators who demonstrate care and respect in both words and action. #charactercounts

One of the lessons I learned is that a school leader with good intentions makes promises; a school leader with character keeps them. Character for a school leader is seen as more valued than competence. #charactercounts

Remember to be kind to others and to yourselves. Like piano or golf, kindness is a practice. You don't just "have" it; you build it through repetition. A great strategy for school and home is kindness101.com #charactercounts

A school’s culture doesn’t happen by accident. Over time, it's shaped by the values a principal lives out & the actions they choose to take—or not take. #charatercoutns

Just as importantly, culture is also defined by the poorest behavior a leader is willing to tolerate. When something is allowed to continue, it quietly sends a message. In the end, what you condone, you own. #charactercounts

As a school administrator, it’s easy to get caught up in the pace of the job, but you can’t afford to let your leadership style outrun your core values. To be a leader who truly matters, you have to stay anchored to your moral compass. #charactercounts

Investing in the ethical climate of a school or district is not only the right thing to do—it’s the smart thing to do. A school’s culture is built over time through the daily actions, decisions & values modeled by principals, teachers & support staff. #charactercounts #culture

The ethical school leader realizes integrity is paramount. Be trustworthy. Follow through. Say what you mean & don’t make promises you can’t keep. When you make a mistake, honestly admit it knowing that the easiest way to eat crow is while it’s still warm. #charactercounts

Research confirms what we already know: relational trust is essential to school success. We work with people of integrity, listen to those we respect, and invest where we feel cared for—so why wouldn’t character matter in our schools and communities? #charactercounts

They tried so hard to suppress this video today. But because of YOU, it is now TRENDING. Please RETWEET and QUOTE TWEET this important video reminding us all WHO WE WERE BEFORE TRUMP

There’s a lot that David Brooks has written that I don’t agree with. But this is 100% spot-on and powerfully stated.

WATCH — Rep. Jonathan L. Jackson at the National Prayer Breakfast: "We pray (Trump) would be mindful of the poor, and that he would be invested in the alleviation of suffering on farms in the Midwest, and in the families preparing to bury their loved ones in Minneapolis."

My primary concern isn't just about politics; it’s about the witness of the Church. If we remain silent about conduct that is vengeful, arrogant, or untruthful, we tell the world that our allegiance to a political party is stronger than our allegiance to the character of Jesus.

Faith isn’t a political weapon & the National Prayer Breakfast isn't a campaign rally. Mocking prayer, gatekeeping who is faithful based on their vote & treating salvation as business deal isn't Christianity . Here's a Republican President on character & faith.

Look at the generational difference… 1990s: • Get a university degree • Get a 9–5 job • Suit and tie • Get promoted • Get married at 21 • Buy a house at 25 • 4 kids, 1 dog • Retire at 60 2026: • Survive… Show more

I use to think that it was not worth it to lie or chest because it hurts your character
