The gift of time is so valuable for teachers. It prevents burnout, helps with pressing matters, honors educators as humans, and values their worth. #edleadership ascd.org/blogs/4-ways-to-giv…

I’m asking these questions about harm for a variety of reasons, but mostly because I’ve spoken to FOUR different BIPOC educators this week across the globe who are being harmed in their organizations. They have no in house support.

I think many #teachers feel this way. As a #coach this year my only wish for the teachers is to be better than what they started. Even if it is changing one thing about their teaching. #alwaysaddtoyourtoolbox #lifelonglearning #neverstopgrowing

Why can’t #edadmin get a clue….sad. It’s most definitely NOT in my realm. I guarantee better teachers to inspire better students. Rant over.
