Lots of kids come to school with their invisible backpacks, weighted with struggles.
Stress, worry, fear, anxiety, trauma, lack of physical needs, loneliness, anger, sadness, & hopelessness can make them so heavy; too heavy for learning to happen.
Notice & love them instead.

After getting extremely close with this coaching staff, talking to my family, and most importantly asking the Lord to give me direction as I made my decision. I’d like to announce my commitment to @CoastalFootball and ball at the beach! @CoachChadwell BAM🎉🦁

There is something magical about a school where professional development is led by the staff. Differentiated and self selcted... That’s how we do Innovator Hour @nmbmchiefs #growthmindset #relentless

Dare to do something crazy to boost morale! Your teachers need it. I hope @nmbmchiefs are ready for “The Puma Cat”. I love my school and school family. #relentless @Rachel_Vaughn_

Thank you @JonGordon11 for sound advice. This stands true for all educators who are leaders to their students. #relentless

This has to be our mindset everyday. Especially during these uncertain times. #nmbmchiefs #relationshipsfirst

The environment that we are in requires extra care of faculty and staff... #nmbmchiefs

Trying hard to figure out what more I can take off my teachers plates right now!

The leadership team @nmbmchiefs spent some time brainstorming how to prioritize high yield strategies during uncertain times. Thank you @flipyrthinking for always pushing my thinking. Our students depend on it!

A unique spin on the traditional method of teaching students about the Plate Tectonics Theory...Prove me wrong! #nmbmchiefs #thinkoutsidethebox #domorewithless

I could not agree with this more. @SteeleThoughts we cannot overlook those who are with our students all day. Great reminder that we have a great responsibilty to all. #relentless #nmbmchiefs
Danny Steele@SteeleThoughts
I know we’re supposed to make our decisions based on the needs of the students... but we can never discount the needs of the adults in the school. They’re the ones taking care of the kids. And they want what’s best for students as well.

Question for the day... is it about covering all content? Or, is it about teaching students to think deeply and critically through your content? #lessismore #nmbmchiefs #strategicplanning

6th Grade ELA students are fully engaged. They are applying what they have learned about author’s craft, point of view, perspective, mood and tone to help determine who kidnapped Donovan. Great teachers equals great outcomes. @RaedeneAveritt @toscani_taya @knab_kara @CoachA_Long

@nmbmchiefs We know our mission. I am excited to get students back in the building.
Dr. Timothy P. Martin, Ed.D@tpmartin631
This 1st week, or next weeks, of school is/are NOT about academics. The children need to get re-acclimated socially and emotionally to a school that is much different than last September. New rules enforced by masks & plexiglass barriers are NOT normal for kids or adults.
English
This is definitely something to ponder...Who do you want to be to your students? @nmbmchiefs #relentless

We get one opportunity to make a first impression at the beginning of the school year. Will that impression be? One of compliance and control? Or will it be one of growth, reflection, culture building, and success? #edchat

Well said @mr_Alsheimer The level of care and passion runs deep. #nmbmchiefs

If you’re struggling today don’t worry. The education world is seeing a lot of tears, frustration, and extremely overwhelmed teachers right now. Trust me you’re not alone and those feelings only show how much YOU CARE.

It is important that I remember this as I always say things will not be perfect! I am thankful for a staff that understands this as we navigate through these unchartered waters. #nmbmchiefs #growthmindset
