Words your students might need to hear today... 1. I believe in you. 2. I won't give up on you. 3. I have very high expectations for you, because I know you can do it. 4. It's going to be hard, but I'm here to help you get through it. 5. You’re doing great! Keep going.

Former school superintendents themselves, the NCSA Ambassadors are all over the state promoting public schools and spreading the #ilovepublicschools message. Give Cinde Wendell, Kyle McGowan and Keith Rohwer a follow, and head over to NPSA for public school success stories!

Best part of my day-coached the Hershey 3rd grade boys to 3-0 and the gold in the hoops tourney. Part of the day that made me the proudest-seeing some of my boys picking up trash that wasn’t theirs in the bleachers before their championship game. They look up to Hershey Student Section

Me: “I am convinced that no student wants to be in trouble. I wish I could figure out why you were making bad choices.” Student in my office: “To be noticeable.” Me: “Are you lonely?” Student: (Nods) (We can’t lower the bar, but we still need to understand.) #AlwaysAReason

Almost time... #quarterzipEDU

Watching @GovRicketts presser this morning on #COVID19 it was amazing to see who was at the table, Public School Administrators. When crisis hits our communities and state it is the Public Schools who provide leadership as they are the ❤️ of EVERY community. #ilovepublicschools

“We all want the same thing. The only way to get there is by navigating the path together.” Healthy Communities, Safe for Schools is a PSA campaign from NCSA, school districts and well-known community members across the state with a simple ask. Mask up, so that we can move on.

Teachers are exhausted, teachers are hurting, teachers are surviving, teachers are keeping their heads above water! Shoutout to every single teacher hanging in there, turning up every single day to help kids! Cant say enough! We see you, we hear you & we got your back! Thank you!
