Although our #2-ranked team @vhstrackfield Ventura leads the girls overall team scoring with 30 points, @wilsonbruintrac need just a top-four finish in the meet-ending 4x400 relay to win the state team title. It looks good. ... They are the state leaders in that event.

Valentina Fakrogha of Ventura won the girls high jump (5-8) at the CIF State track and field championships. She is the county's 3rd high jump state champion joining Lydia French of TO (2010) and Erinn Beattie of Buena (2015). @vcspreps

Two teachers can teach the exact same lesson and get completely different results. The variable? The teachers’ passion and creativity. The power is not in the program. The power is in the magic the teacher brings. #multiplyexcellence

We are so F’d if we don’t ban phones and social media during school and class time. Kids are absorbing so much toxic, counter-factual crap. “We let them listen to music to study” & “they need their phones to do research because of the district firewall” 👎👎👎👎👎👎

Dear Teacher, It’s Sunday night, and I promised I’d remind you that you’re okay. That weight-of-the-world-on-your-shoulders feeling is just your heart filling up for kids. You’re okay. In fact, you’re pretty damn remarkable. There’s your reminder. ~Not-So-Secret Admirer

Pssst. We’re all behind on our grading. And it’s okay. 27 years. Never not been behind. No one cared but me, so I quit caring. Well, mostly.

When I talk about doing away with standardized tests, one push back from NON educators is how do you hold teachers accountable. Well Gates foundation et.al. spent 700 millions dollars only to find out standardized test do NOT reflect teacher effectiveness.

The culture of a school is created by everyone in the school. Walk in a school and see how the front office staff talks and interacts or the staff /teachers in the hallway. Yes the admin influences it but everyone is ultimately responsible for a positive school culture.
