- I think my teacher evaluations for the year are done, goes something like this: You pivoted, adapted, you were flexible & persevered, you were resilient, you showed grace, you worked your tail off & you did it! Thank you, thank u! What educators have accomplished is unbelievable!
- FACT - Educators are not at home doing nothing! In many cases they are working harder, learning new skills, preparing lessons - while managing their own families, safety, stress & health! All the while never losing sight of their students - it’s incredible!
- 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!
- When @JoeBiden says to educators- you now have one of your own in the White House - I’m stoked for educators everywhere! Our students, our children are winning!
- After watching Secretary of Education DeVos’s interviews yesterday - it once again reaffirms to me that her tenure cannot come to an end soon enough. Education simply deserves better.
- My message to our staff right now is simple - keep it simple! My job as principal right is simple - keep it simple for my staff! This is not the time to over complicate the work we are doing! Keep it simple! Keep the main thing, the main thing!
- My challenge to educators this week is to go find the silent voice, go check in and chat with a student who often goes unnoticed or heard! Every child deserves an advocate and voice! Bring a smile to everyone!
- Yes I will give a student a second, third, forth.......chance! As many chances as it takes for a child to succeed! That’s my job, that’s what I signed up for - to be the difference, to go one more round! #relentless
- I want to be measured by how great my students become as fathers, mothers and citizens - not by test scores!
- Don’t be fooled by the smoke and mirrors - education is hard work, the opportunity to change lives is hard work - it’s not a Pinterest board! Shoutout to every educator doing the work! Stay #Relentless
- The TikTok trend of stealing & trashing school property is straight up embarrassing & unacceptable! So over social media outlets allowing such junk to trend. Nothing to celebrate or trend!
- Trying hard to figure out what more I can take off my teachers plates right now!
- Im broken, in tears. Students are messaging me. Straight up devastated for my students, staff and community! Devastated for my families, they dont have much, worried about their & my staffs well being! I get the why & thought I was ready to hear it, but don’t want to believe it!
