Administrators want teachers to be sensitive to the home life of kids. Well… administrators need to be sensitive to the home life of their teachers. They deal with divorce, depression, family illness, and other stresses that can have a profound impact. They need compassion too.

Bombed a lesson hard today, prompting this exchange: Me: “Are you getting this at all?” Students: “Not really.” Me: “Ok, my bad.” Student: “It’s ok Mr. Carter. We can tell you’re trying really hard.” Relationships matter. Relationships allow you to try again tomorrow.

We've been a little silent on our social channels this past week, but VERY busy in the background. We wrapped up March with the Feed Our City program giving out several thousands meals while supporting our local restaurants. Thank you to the community for your support!

A simple leadership tip: The key to school improvement is a commitment to people improvement ...invest in people...support people...help people develop into what they can be. Don’t write off staff. They don’t get to do that with students.
