One of the best ways to give ownership is to make data visible! Own your learning, know your kids, set the bar.

This year was probably the toughest year I have faced as a school administrator. Yes, tougher than the pandemic, tougher than a natural disaster (faced both in 2020). But I didn't quit on my staff, our students, my family, or myself- and I am coming back for more. #LearnLoveLead

While it’s not a new title, I’m always looking for titles to add to build my understanding and grow as a leader. I’ve got another book arriving later this week. Still love the feeling of a book in my hand.

Every superintendent and school board member should read this article. A decade of toughening teacher evaluations and tying it to standardized tests have shown no positive impact on student learning. It has only decreased morale. Stop the madness. edweek.org/teaching-learn…

It's back-to-school time! Do you know when it is safe and legal to pass a stopped school bus with its gate arm extended and lights flashing? Also, be alert for 🚸 children crossing the street 🚲 pedestrians & cyclists 🦺 crossing guards 🎒 school zones

@CRKennedyHigh If beer cheese soup can be soup, I can’t disagree with this. Also, under the right circumstances, I’ll eat queso with a spoon.

@sai_iowa “It’s not about you!” Was left on a post it note for me by the outgoing principal and I’ve kept it taped to my computer ever since. Our role is to inspire, support, set and communicate direction in a collaborative environment. We set the tone so make it a positive one!

It was a great day welcoming 40 new elementary principals to the role. Experienced administrators, what nuggets of advice would you share with these leaders?

Although we know from research, especially @john_hattie, that student development (yep…Piaget) has one of the highest effect sizes, we continue to erode play from the younger grades and replace it with sitting. Joyful learning- movement, choice, safety, collaboration!

Loving the idea of teachers sharing their instructional growth goals with their students to model continuous learning and development. If we want our kids to be lifelong learners, let’s model that we all have things to work on. #hrsinstitute
