Greatness isn’t achieved by worrying what everyone thinks of you. Don’t look outside. The praise, criticism, expectations; it’s all just noise. Look inside to your heart and soul and do your thing. Do it with love and create greatness from the inside out.

We don’t need our teachers to be the most talented, the most innovative, or the most tech savvy. We need them to care about kids… care about their craft… work well with their colleagues… and come to work every day, excited about making a difference.

Traditional grading does far more damage than good. #edchat #education

Teachers, NEVER let anyone make you feel guilty for enjoying your time off from school. Whether its excited on a Friday afternoon or even that summer is near. Teachers pour out their heart & soul on a daily basis! You're human, you have to recharge!

Sometimes kids push their boundaries. That’s what they do. Most adults were kids once. It’s good to remember. We hold kids accountable… but we still can show grace; we can still demonstrate compassion; and we always respect their dignity.

I’ve learned a lot of things as a principal… but the big one is this: Teachers are the most important resource in the school. They need to be supported, encouraged, and celebrated. They drive the school.

Twitter Friends: I need your help! My account was hacked into and is now gone! I have worked so hard to build my educational community over the past 7 years and it hurts to see it vanish! Could you please follow me and share this out? I need my Edu-people back!!!

Educators are not defined by the test scores they generate or the programs they implement. I think their greatness is found in the hundreds of little interactions they have with students every day. They are what will be remembered. They are what make a difference for kids.
