For kids in foster care, it's hard not to feel 'other'. Supports just for them can exasperate those feelings. AFFCNY supports the WHOLE family (foster, adoptive & birth). Pls donate if you can. 100% matching is happening so ANY amount will be DOUBLED!! brooklyngives.org/organizations/…

"Weak leaders expect service; strong leaders give it."

"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." - Maya Angelou

"The role of a 'Great Leader' is not to give greatness to human beings, but to help them extract the greatness they already have inside them." - Buchan

“Great leaders don’t set out to be a leader… they set out to make a difference.”

Yup…

NYTimes article today about how our kids are academically doomed… I guess I’m just confused. Eighth grade at 26% and fourth grade at 36% is cause for PANIC… but the fact that PRE-pandemic, the kids were at 34% and 41% 🤔… really, it’s just the decrease that has us upset??? 😵‍💫

Until we accurately diagnose the causes behind the decline in the supply of new teachers, we won’t be able to devise solutions to fix it: educationnext.org/why-are-fewer-… via @EducationNext
