As we open schools this week, I ask that we take a deep breath & practice flexibility as we are about to embark into a school yr like no other. I’m confident that we will overcome obstacles & learn from issues that arise. I ask that we also celebrate the “wins” ahead. #112Leads

And you are all doing a great job. I have gotten lots of calls from admins who feel like targets. The target is moving, and that makes it hard to have all answers. But none of us has all the answers today. Even wise and powerful ISBE doesn't yet. We'll all find answers together.
