In light of the severe health conditions and medical needs of Leonard Peltier, join @ndncollective and @nativeorganizersalliance in asking Attorney General Merrick Garland to free America’s longest serving Indigenous political prisoner.  Call the US Justice Department’s comment line today and ask for Peltier’s compassionate release at 202-353-1555. #freeleonardpeltier #indigenous #indigenousrights #socialjustice #humanrights

What a critically important message for #supts and #schoolboards to hear & internalize. Leaders cannot fill from an empty bowl. Focus on #selfcare is not selfish; it’s essential for remaining present & maintaining attention on competing needs while serving in this complex role!
How do our 2024 regional superintendents of the year prioritize self care? Exercise, weekly date nights, community involvement, and quiet early mornings are just a few ways these outstanding district leaders stay focused! #LeadershipMatters

In districts with boards that are 75% or more female, nearly half (48%) of the Superintendents leading the District are women. Representation matters. When we have more more female leaders on school boards, we have more female superintendents.

More lead(h)ership is needed in schools and districts across the US!!!!!

This is an essential practice!! Our children, schools, districts, and communities need healthy superintendents!!
Like my friend and #sistersupe @DrBarbaraMullen, I calendar them out for the week. And when I have to say no to something that conflicts with my scheduled workouts, I don’t feel guilty. I am sustaining myself to stay in this work. #FitLeaders

We have to move beyond symbolic efforts…we need substantive and systematic changes to see the leadership representation reach something approaching equality. Read the full interview here: www-forbes-com.cdn.ampprojec…
