Movement breaks are a great way to increase physical and mental energy! How will you incorporate movement into your daily routine? #SEL #Socialemotionalskills #Kidsactivities #Parenting #Healthyhabits #Mentalhealth #Exercise #brainbreaks #movementbreaks

There are no "Tier 2" or "Tier 3" students. They are all just students. Some need special education supports or intervention, but that’s what they receive, not who they are. #LeadInclusion #SPEDchat #inclusion #globaled #edleaders #edchat #globalspedchat #inclusion #udl

#ThoughtForTheDay Leadership is defined not by how we respond when we know what to do, but rather how we respond & behave when we don’t know what to do. Effective leaders bring a sense of assurance to the unknown & give us confidence that all will be fine. #LiveYourExcellence

I’m inspired by teachers who define their success by the success of their students… and who care about them in a genuine way.
I’m inspired by administrators who bend over backward to support their teachers… and who have the courage to rock the boat when needed.

Teaching is challenging. It is stressful. It is exhausting. It is draining.
The struggle of teachers is real.
But so is their impact.

Sometimes a student is just waiting for someone to believe in them. Will you be that person today? Will you show them that they can?

There is no greater work to be done than to create schools that change the trajectory of students' lives for the better, especially for our most under dreamed students. #MondayMorning

#ThoughtForTheDay No matter how messy your mornings feel somedays just remember that some child will come to school whose morning was just as messy as yours. If it’s a challenge for us as adults imagine what they must be thinking in their little heads. #Culturize
