The problem is that you don’t fail a TCAP test. It’s not a test that is intended to be pass or fail. It is intended to inform teachers what skills a student lacks. It is not intended to be used for grade placement. It doesn’t determine a reading level. We are misusing this test.

We can’t control the home environment of our students, but we can surely control their classroom environment. When they’re under our care, they can feel safe, feel supported, and feel loved.

TN now is #1 in U.S. for daily new #Covid cases per population. If we were an independent nation, we would be #2 for new Covid cases in the world. This week, TN reached highest level of hospitalizations from the virus yet. Our TN elected leadership must NOW step up & take action.

Lee plans to include voucher funding in the 20-21 state budget, yet public school teachers were given no state raise this year. Our teachers are working harder than ever to keep quality instruction continuing. Let’s pivot the conversation to where priorities should be!

When Belinda Anderson became @CCJHSEaglePride's principal, her vision was to make sure every student felt accepted and every teacher felt supported. Judging by her fabulous picture and #LCOY profile comments, we think she has brought that vision to life! app.lifechangeroftheyear.com…

“Young people want to see themselves. They want to see their language, their clothes, their flavor, their personalities, their jokes, their dances. So I put those things in every single book I write,” @JasonReynolds83 says at the #TIME100Next ti.me/3545P5y

Many leaders struggle with time management.
I think it’s good to first identify your core values. This allows you to clarify priorities.
Then the goal is to spend your time and energy on your priorities...on the things that reflect your values...and the things that add value.
