If we teach today's students as we taught yesterday's, we rob them of tomorrow.
As a middle school principal, I see the โera of distractionโ every dayโbut I also see opportunity.โจWeโre not just managing changeโwe're embracing it.โจRelevance. Relationships. Purpose.โจOur kids deserve learning that matters. @ajjuliani

LEADERS!! What if you woke up every morning thinking you were in the good old days? It may change your interactions and will give you more good old days to talk about in 20 years.

Itโs that time of year again for this reminder: Research is clear that holding kids back DOESNโT work. More time with no change in instruction is simply more of what didn't work the first time. Promote and interveneโalmost always the right answer. #LeadInclusion #teacher #edchat

A problem w/focusing and communicating from a deficit perspective is that we often miss incredible opportunities before us. Further, when we focus on what we donโt have or what we donโt believe we can do, we create a culture of no we canโt, as opposed to YES WE CAN!
