This is insane. A new high school outside Dallas dedicated 1/3 of their floor space to entrepreneurship.
The 1st floor is a mall, where 15+ local businesses set up shop so students can be mentored, apply for jobs & learn how to run a biz.
There's also a:
- recording studio
- photo studio
- makerspace innovation lab
- coding lab
- eSports lab
- 10,000 square foot theatre
- 7,000 seat arena
The on site businesses get a cheaper lease if they mentor students.
Floors 2-3 have normal HS classes
The school is becoming a template for other schools and is called Opportunity Central.
Better yet, this school cost a whopping $100 million LESS than a normal new high school.
The superintendent sounds like a hero. Imagine if more administrators had common sense like this:
You can be the most knowledgeable veterinarian in the world but if you can’t run the veterinary hospital and the business side to it, you’re not going to be very successful long-term.
This makes me proud to live in Texas. Would love to see this become more common.
I want to be a part of this somehow.
Today was the day! I passed my final dissertation defense in the Ed Leadership and Policy Studies program at VT and am now Dr. Rebecca Hall 🎉🎉🎉.
Thank you to everyone who supported me on this journey.

I was fortunate to spend time this morning at my old stomping grounds @CodeRVA1 - It was amazing to see how smoothly day 1 was for the Raptors and how the innovation continues to evolve to provide new opportunities for students #ElevateEducatorsVA @lisacoons10 @klgcoderva

A boss looks for reasons to say no. A leader looks for reasons to say yes.
A boss issues orders and demands loyalty. A leader gives direction and takes responsibility.
A boss expects to be the most important person in the room. A leader makes everyone feel important.

Don’t let negativity win today. Remember it starts with you. If you are complaining you’re not leading. If you are leading you’re not complaining. One person can’t make a team but one person can break a team. Stay positive! No energy vampires allowed. 😀
Another great day of collaboration with school and division leaders as part of the Chronic Absenteeism Collaborative Learning Cohort #OSQinAction @aurelia_ortiz1

Being positive doesn’t mean you don’t address what’s wrong. It means you confront issues in a constructive way to make them right.
Honored to spend my day collaborating with amazing colleagues to support school and division leaders on a timely and important topic - reducing chronic absenteeism. #OSQinAction @attendanceworks
