All it takes is one teacher who believes in you.

There has to be give and take when it comes to initiatives. If we give something more, we need to take something away. Even if it was something that once seemed important. Nothing is important if everything is important.

If you’re kind, honest, and a hard worker… you’ll end up being a great human. The academic standards are important… but it’s also cool when educators can find ways to reinforce this other stuff.

Great AD even greater human being! Way to go Ruff!

This is honestly so true 😂 Deion Sanders is living the dream.

Leaders: Please don't complain about how "difficult" your job is when you don’t have the courage to remove ineffective employees. Your job is “difficult” because you’re always cleaning up the messes left by the ineffective employees you continue to retain.

According to the CDC, people who work long hours are less productive than those who maintain 40-hour workweeks. In fact, working more than 50 hours results in an inverse correlation: Ppl who work 50 hours only "produce" 37 hours Ppl who work 55 hours only "produce" 30 hours
