It’s easy to get discouraged by *that kid* and say, “I didn’t sign up for this.” The reality? Yes. We did. We did sign up for this. We signed up to teach KIDS. 🔸*That kid* who is crying every morning when they get to school? We signed up for it. 🔻*That kid* who is in the 8th grade and still can’t read? We signed up for it. 🔸*That kid* who is soiling their pants every day? We signed up for it. 🔻*That kid* who destroyed your classroom? We signed up for it. 🔸*That kid* who cussed you out last week? We signed up for it. 🔻*That kid* who ________________? We signed up for it. If what we are doing isn’t working, try something different. *That kid* is going to need a different pathway toward success - filled with more patience, more compassion, and a lot more love. Think about *that kid* in your class right now. Is your heart and mind in the right place? Don’t allow them to become a spectacle in your school - among the kids, teachers, or parents. Don’t allow them to become the topic of conversation at the lunch table. Protect them from that. Love them enough to change their story! #multiplyexcellence
