@phuggsports To be fair, he's been accused for months of being heavy-handed by a vocal minority, so I would expect this to be welcomed by many as reining it back some. (Not taking a side here--simply describing what has happened--so please don't get mad at me, folks.)

Also, how about a definitive statement from Wolf and not a cryptic remark like that. COMMUNICATE, you're the Governor!

A4: I simply remind myself that our students really do want to spend the school day learning, and that part of that process is the fun banter and curiosity that helps to enliven any class period, even when many kids might "front" like they don't enjoy school. #CCMSChat #Culturize
Mariah Rackley, Ed.D.@DrRackleyCLSD

Q4: Share one strategy you use to help yourself come to #CCMS with a positive attitude every day. #Culturize #CommUNITY #CCMSChat #FalconPride @CCMS_Eck @MrsDebraRyland @mrG_ccmsReading @MrMacCCMS @SnydesCCMS @misskennyesl @PattersonCCMS @MsOblinsky

@TDavisscience I need to get to more of these kinds of events, because there's just a different dynamic and it becomes easier to form connections with kids.

A2: I try to build rapport during the first few weeks of school to start but I also love going to all the extra school functions with the students like field trips, mini THON, etc. I also enjoy the transition time between classes to check in with everyone. #CCMSchat #tlap

A3: I strive to model patience in responding to others because it feels like snappy, harsh, responses are almost the norm. We need to remember that most people are not out to get us or offend us, and to help students see this too. #CCMSChat #Culturize
Mariah Rackley, Ed.D.@DrRackleyCLSD

Q3: #Culturize emphasizes modeling expectations. What is one value you model at #CCMS? What is one value you WANT to model more in our #CommUNITY? #CCMSChat #FalconPride @CCMS_Eck @MrsDebraRyland @mrG_ccmsReading @MrMacCCMS @SnydesCCMS @misskennyesl @PattersonCCMS @MsOblinsky

A2: I think that part of why #ExpectingExcellence is so critical is that doing otherwise is kind of a put-down. It doesn't just "demand" greater effort from ourselves and students, but also suggests what we think they're capable of. #CCMSChat #Culturize
Mariah Rackley, Ed.D.@DrRackleyCLSD

Q2: @casas_jimmy said that "striving for excellence each day is a lifestyle." Share your beliefs on the importance of #ExpectingExcellence! #Culturize #CCMSChat #FalconPride @CCMS_Eck @MrsDebraRyland @mrG_ccmsReading @MrMacCCMS @SnydesCCMS @misskennyesl @PattersonCCMS @MsOblinsky

Answer to yesterday's riddle: he has big feet. Most people assume that the person in question is female, and therefore don't give the simplest and most plausible answer.

Why did the blonde always buy shoes in a men's size 14? Bring in your answer (with an explanation of the critical thinking behind it) to get extra credit tomorrow. Warning: correct answer does not disparage any group of people.
