Honored to again present to a new @DrakeUniversity leadership cohort for aspiring superintendents! Thanks to @MageeDT for the opportunity to help build the capacity of #EducationalLeaders
⚡️ We are hiring multiple head coaches for next year, including Girls Wrestling, Boys Wrestling, and Football. Are you interested in making a difference in the lives of our student-athletes? Contact Scott Kriegel ([email protected]) for more information today!
If you want your team to be calm under pressure, you must be calm under pressure. If you want your team to be consistent, you must be consistent. If you want your team to be accountable, you must be accountable. Live the standard, no excuses. Leaders set the tone.
This Saturday 📚 @PremierEDLeader returns to @DrakeUniversity 🏫 to once again provide professional learning to aspiring superintendents on conducting thorough & effective investigations. Learn more about us at: premieredleader.com
CPU has something like 479 daily stops so it’s amazing when you multiply that by 178 days = 85k+ a year that our drivers transport students safely to and from school!

Blue-White game is here! Football is FUN! #RAISEtheBAR
You can’t please everybody. You won’t get approval from everyone. You can’t avoid criticism. So stop trying. Give your best effort. Show up with integrity. Be at peace with yourself and ignore the noise. Be about progress.
Culture suffers when the standard is inconsistent. Culture suffers when communication is inconsistent. Culture suffers when leadership is inconsistent. Consistency is a competitive advantage.
Super deserving! Congrats @JGroendyke!!’

Complaining is a virus that seeks to spread and justify itself by any means necessary. You must not let complaining sneak its way into your life. If you can solve it, solve it. If you can endure it, endure it. If you can’t do either, move on. But do not complain.
Championship culture isn’t just about championship talent. It’s about championship mindset. It’s about championship communication. It’s about championship discipline. It’s about championship relationships. It’s about championship commitment. Leaders set the tone.
Another stellar @queensryche and @thearmoredsaint show at the @AEPowerHouseCR… although the old man in me must be coming out as it sure was LOUD. #OriginsTour2024

@ChrisDouglas515 It’s the 21st century. Why do we still have these stickers at all? It’s not like they can’t track who has renewed their license plates & paid vehicle taxes without a color coded sticker… 🤦🏼♂️
As first reported by The Gazette (legal notices) … @LinderReagan has made a firm commitment for the 2024-25 school year as high school science teacher at Center Point-Urbana.
Of all the visits and commitments and signings through the years … this is the one I am most excited to announce. And it’s a blockbuster. Details forthcoming soon.
@jtlinder @LinderReagan Sounds like you got a good one, @thejohnelkin!
