Cool bit in @aledlab newsletter that Tuscaloosa AL is considering a dress code change and taking parent an student feedback, using this @thoughtxchng platform seems better than your average survey monkey or MSFT form...
Why do schools have difficulty staffing their classrooms with qualified teachers? Dr. Richard M. Ingersoll, Professor of Education and Sociology at the University of @Penn, shares his thoughts. #EdLeadership #EdChat
Parent survey feedback. Top thought everyone agrees with, regardless of which side of the mask you are on: “Once masks are optional, please be respectful to the students and staff that may continue to wear their masks because of underlying health conditions. Civility… be nice.”
"A brilliant coach. A loyal and trusted friend. A Raider." We'll always remember John Madden.
Stop looking at children with deficit thinking (what's wrong with you?) Instead, look at them with asset thinking. (What's right with you? what matters to you? who do you want to be?) My biggest takeaway from a session I had the privilege to be part of last week. #streetdata
Thank you @teresa_lance, @JamilaDugan, @ShaneSafir for the insightful session yesterday. "We are so much more than our institutions" "What is measurable is not the same as what is valuable" #streetdata
“There's nothing more powerful than a humble person with a warrior spirit who is driven by a bigger purpose.” When I think of Veterans I think of this. Selflessly serving & sacrifice. Willing to pay the ultimate price for something bigger than themselves. Thank You Veterans! 🙏
Our students’ mental health is way more important than their grades.

There is almost no school-related issue of #equity/ #inclusion we cannot solve if we center #student voices. Students shine a light on what matters. Students speak truth to power. Students can help us break free from the shackles of our imagination and chart a path to justice.
