When a student is disrespectful, it is usually not about the teacher. It’s usually about the other kids who are watching.

#Teachers with few behavior issues have the following in common: 1. Rarely gets offended. 2. Starts every day with a clean slate. 3. Talks w kids before/after class. 4. Considers de-esclation a win. 5. Doesn’t need the last word. Add yours 👇 #ThatOneKid #edchat

Classroom management means I manage the only person I control. When things get crazy, do I remain calm? Am I respectful to disrespectful people? When someone pushes my buttons, do I react or respond? #thatonekid #edchat #teachers

Ignore the Critics; Do the Work

To my educator peeps... you don’t have to be an administrator, grade level chair, or department head to be a leader in you school. Your title doesn’t matter. You just need to care about making it better. Passion and commitment can transform any culture.

5 Non Negotiables for success w ur toughest kids. 1. You have to like them 2. Private is better than public 3. Some is better than none 4. Late is better than not at all 5. 2nd to last word is best #edchat #thatonekid #culturize

The best captains are all about their TEAMMATES. The best coaches are all about their ATHLETES. The best teachers are all about their STUDENTS. The best leaders are all about their PEOPLE. Who are you all about? #ItsNotAllAboutYou #ItsAllAboutThem #CultureWins

For #NationalBullyingPreventionMonth, @NortheastMS_CMS had a school-wide Black Out! Also, school counselors Brandi Roberts and Sharon Beatty (#AntibullyingSquad) went around the school throughout the month to present anti-bullying lessons to students.

Never underestimate your ability to have a good day on purpose.

“This kid’s giving me a hard time.” OR “This kid’s having a hard time.” Our perspective matters… and it impacts how we respond to our students. (Truth from @HeidyLaFleur) #CLASConv21
