Instructional leadership is not about improving teachers; It is about creating the conditions where teachers can improve themselves. @SteeleThoughts #essentialtruths @ToddWhitaker

#Belonging is often defined as a visceral feeling: You know when you feel it—and you REALLY know when you don't. Belonging (effect size = 0.46, per the latest research) can accelerate learning, meaning that #students with a strong sense of belonging perform better academically.

Leadership is not about having power over others, and it definitely isn’t about telling people what to do. Being a leader means caring about the people you’re leading and focusing on their success more than your own. #edchat
