After we learn a new sound it becomes the “secret password” for entering the classroom, allowing for several extra daily repetitions. The kids ❤️ it - and don’t worry about the ones who forget; if they don’t copy the child in front of them I supply the sound for them to repeat.

If I'm a superintendent, I encourage those with leadership potential to attend one of the sessions. If I'm an aspiring school leader, I'm first in line. The results @NELA_NCSU graduates produce are remarkable.

Layla’s first community service project. She worked hard, right up until she started riding the horse and playing with the family dog. Still proud of my girl. – at North Carolina, USA

Today was beautiful. A tremendous thanks to Todd’s Production for thinking enough of teachers to give back to their neighborhood schools.

Hats off to every pandemic principal. It could not have been easy but you did it. So to all of you, I say “Bravo!” Your support systems saw you. Thank you for doing your best moment by moment. – at North Carolina, USA
Money is there there to do what’s right for public schools. Just finished working with the committed to every student @OrangeCoSchools Bd of Ed. I shared with them that the principal is the key to making it work. He/she recruits, selects, develops & retains quality teachers.

30 minutes until my last class session with a remarkable @NELA_NCSU cohort. Time to kill so catching up on Twitter. Said this before, if you can hire a NELA graduate as an AP or Principal, do it!

Yes, the residency is over, but I’m vested in Langston, Sophia, Ivie, Madonna, Tonya, and Kanisha, just to name a few, so I’ll stay. Yes, I could be doing a lot of things, but I choose this. Share splash was a success. 22-23 is coming and RLES will be ready. @RogersLaneES – at North Carolina, USA

A strong leader reminded me of this lesson. Look for those who will help you thrive and avoid those who will stifle joy. And be on guard to make sure you aren’t the one doing the stifling. cultofpedagogy.com/marigolds…

In lieu of an “icebreaker” to launch the new school year..think about having each grade or team in your building have time to share, put their accomplishments together, share them with colleagues, students, parents and the community. Would celebrate teacher voice !

When so many leave an organization for a lateral move, does it make you wonder? It shouldn’t, it’s LEADERSHIP!
