Remember Gandhi’s advice "I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet." - Knowing you have the power inside you to overcome the negativity in the world means you won't let the opinion of others define you or your destiny.

Positive leaders lead and live with integrity. They don’t sacrifice their principles and reputation for temporary gain.

Effective teachers don't focus so much on rules, but on routines, procedures and expectations. If you focus on rules, you will spend most of the year enforcing them. But if you focus on routines, procedures, and expectations, you rarely have to defer back to the rules.

5 tips for building class climate: 1) Talk to kids when they walk into class. 2) Learn 1 thing about each student. 3) Praise the class publicly and criticize students privately. 4) Apologize when needed. 5) Don’t take yourself too seriously.

It’s called an “investment” and it pays “dividends”

For the betterment of my mind, body, soul, and spirit I am beginning the school year on a digital diet which includes a social media fast. #balance #family #health 🙏✌🏻
