Most things in your life- your home, your grades, your neighborhood, your responsibilities- won't change until you do.

“Don’t just create lessons for your students. Create #experiences. Students will forget a lesson, but an experience will have lasting value. We want to do more than cover content. We want to inspire #learning.”

We’re thankful for the ways our students serve and make the world better! Xi Chi Delta gathered artists and supplies from all the social clubs to repaint the @CCMS3Gs girls’ bathroom. Alumnus and CCMS Principal @CoachKirk shared these photos. – at Tennessee, USA

This week a student said to me, “Can you let adults know there’s no need to have lived our pain to get us? It’s ok to have never known no lights, no clean clothes, no dad, nobody home. We just need adults who WANT to get us & we need to know they want to.”
I sure can. #LoveWorks

CCMS & CCJHS Educators are learning to “band the average!” Aren’t students unique? Thanks for pushing to new learning! You make the difference with CC students.

Great resources to plan for critical thinking and problem solving of students. Are your students in regular productive struggle?
The goal of visible learning is for students to see themselves as their own teachers. Read this article on helping students think critically! @lynnreedy ow.ly/1v1250jkPj8

This is the reason you need to stay relevant to your students current interest. Relating to THEIR world is important! It builds relationships, gets you buy in, and makes you one of the cool teachers.😎 #education #whyiteach #NEISD #GoPublic

At our opening day all district convocation this year our superintendent said frankly in his talk, “Here’s a research based practice for you all. It’s spelled ‘l-o-v-e’. LOVE, MEASURE THAT!

Yesterday our Eagle family suffered an incredible loss. Mr. Lewis was a loving husband and father, a dedicated educator, & a dear friend. Please pray for his family and our students and staff as we mourn our loss but rejoice in knowing where Mr. Lewis is living his best future.
