Last day of year 17 @IrvingHigh , wow how things have changed over that time. Irving was never on my map being an Air Force brat from Valdosta Georgia and then growing up in Johnson County south of Fort Worth, but now I look to one day retire here! @IrvingISD saved my life, twice

@JadonWalters @jdouglas4 Completely agree. I like to look up and see the lap number and running order at all times. Had to wait a while for animations yesterday.

@jdouglas4 can we do away with the scoring pylon having the 109th running animation during the race? I'm just trying to see what lap we're on and where cars are, I know what race I'm at!

@TheLeaderinMe Great resource. I especially like step 5. Listening is vital. "Seek first to understand before being understood" is my favorite habit.

Everyone Needs These THREE Things! If you don’t have them you’ll feel lost. Make sure you have a: 1. Mission. 2. Team. 3. Scoreboard If you retire you have to find a new mission, team and scoreboard. If you go through a life change you’ll likely have to find a new mission, team and scoreboard.

Education is relationship centered! The message I carry around the world.

@JayCollinsFL Thank you for this timely message. We need to end the stigma of mental health issues.

Following the death of Deputy Timothy White right here in Tampa, I wanted to share this message with each of you. There is an epidemic plaguing our first responders. It is important that they know they are not alone. There is help and information available, thanks to fantastic groups like @CrisisCenterTB. Reach out to them, or make use of the resources below. To all civilians, I ask you to share this message and join in the fight. Our first responders are the ones that run in while others run out. They have our six, we need to have theirs.

An easy way to practice self-care.

Happiness is not the goal. Instead, seek purpose by contributing to the greater good and continuing to grow.

Truth! Every role in the school is important.

🎉 It's here! Each year, we share this as a starting point to honor and celebrate the amazing educators in our lives. Remember, EVERY day is a great day to celebrate someone and remind them they matter to you! #WeLeadTX #appreciation #celebrate #youmatter #TXed

Ghosting isn't always due to a lack of care. It’s often a misguided effort to avoid hurting someone. Many people stop replying to shield others from pain. They don't realize being ignored is usually worse than being rejected. Candor stings briefly. Silence leaves an open wound.

So sweet! ❤️❤️ The students at Tinker K-8 made Valentines as part of U.S. Rep. @KathyCastorFL Valentines for Veterans initiative. This morning, Rep. Castor & School Board Member Stacy Hahn visited Tinker to pick up the cards & deliver them to a local Veterans hospital.

A key to lifelong learning is to see everyone you meet as a potential teacher. No one has a monopoly on wisdom. Each interaction is a chance to question old assumptions and gain new perspectives. Collecting lessons from others is the fastest way to fill gaps in your experience.

Our Science of Reading Kick Off in SCCPSS was amazing! Every student has the Right to Read and #togetherwecan eradicate illiteracy in SCCPSS!

Here's something every leader could do today. Brag about someone every time you feel like complaining. Build an environment where people feel like they matter.

You could say the auditions for a third ManningCast host did not go as expected.
