Admirable and heroic.

🚨Mark your calendars! 🚨

@DavidsonFB A wonderful human. RIP Coach Fagg. 💙🙏🏼💙

A low cost - high return investment that could save so many infant lives! Policy makers & business leaders, let’s do real work that matters to everyone rather than playing politics. 1 in 4 child deaths after ER visits are preventable, study finds mcclatchy-wires.com/incoming/artic…

Innovative, proactive problem solving is a critical skill for leaders. How about incentives for businesses to support childcare costs & free onsite childcare for teachers as recruitment incentives? The best leaders are solving problems in innovative ways! ednc.org/10-29-2024-chi…

This. Listen to your heart whisperings. 💙💫💙

Balance…a simple skill with a big impact and we can practice it to protect our aging selves. Use it or lose it! Simple test helps gauge signs of aging in people 50 and over mcclatchy-wires.com/incoming/artic…

This.We must be plan 4 these sorts of tragedies. No time 4 divisiveness & no time 4 legislative decisions to be influenced by people/ corporations who only care about their own profits & greed. Helene was a warning; NC must get ready for climate shocks charlotteobserver.com/opinion/articl…

As always, our most vulnerable citizens, those who live in poverty, suffer greatly during times of tragedy. Everyone needs a village of support. Be a helper. ‘It threw us back’: People living in public housing in Asheville cope in post-Helene life charlotteobserver.com/news/state/nor…

@CSmithGoBlue Excellent leadership tips here!

1. Now is the time for generous #leaders. 2. The definition of a tough leader is changing. 3. Generous listening is critical. 4. Connecting personally and deeply is expected, almost demanded. 5. People expect their leaders to take off the mask. Read more: nextbigideaclub.com/magazine/5-way…

Looking forward to hearing @jesslahey’s “The Gift of Failure: How the Best Parents Learn to Let Go So Their Children Can Succeed” this evening, hosted by @davidsonday. #nced #edchat #GrowthMindset

Parents, take a hard hard look. Bleak new look at exactly what our children are doing on their phones charlotteobserver.com/opinion/articl…

The high school history teachers I know are deeply committed to teaching critical thinking, curious questioning, and multiple perspectives included. They have no secret agenda and they invite discussion. edweek.org/teaching-learn…

Read this (misleading headline) and then explain to me why NC is 38th (about to move to 41st) in the country for teacher pay. NC can pay its bills this year, but ‘sluggish revenue growth’ to come, budget director says charlotteobserver.com/news/politics-…

We must improve NC teacher pay so ALL students have access to excellent educators. High poverty schools have the most needs and the most vacancies. This is not okay. ‘It’s not going away.’ NC data show which schools are hit hardest by teacher shortages charlotteobserver.com/news/local/edu…

This breaks my heart. We must fix this for both the children AND the future of our country.
