New to tweeting…. What can principals do to make 2021-2022 the best for teachers? Real talk, I never want a teacher to leave because of lack of support or be non-renewed… If you had the magic wand, what would you do?

I heard people need at least 5 positive and affirming comments for every criticism or correction they receive. Principals, you can't encourage your teachers too much. Teachers, you can't encourage your students too much.

When you hear yourself say, “That kid is attention seeking,” try replacing it with, “That kid is connection seeking.” See what happens! @DrJCarrington @SevierSchoolDis #kidsthesedays #seviersdstrong #uted #utpol
