#ThoughtForTheDay Accept the fact that sometimes the path to greatness is lonely. We must continue to strive to be our best version of us. After all, how could we ask others to do the same if we aren’t willing to do this ourselves?...via #Culturize

Today in Seussville Ss got a message from our principal that our buildings did not get approved by our city. Ss had to add an additional ten rod and determine their new value! Seussville was up for the challenge and succeeded! 🙌🏻 #bhegameon

Thought for the day: Talking negatively about your students, parents, colleagues, & admin actually says more about you than the people you are speaking negatively about. Start today to carry the banner for those whom you serve....via #Culturize

Thought for the day: See your school’s culture not through your eyes, but through the eyes of your students, staff & parents. When you change your perspective, you can change lives...via #Culturize

The best teachers have 3 things in common: 1. They are all about the kids. 2. They are relentless about getting better. 3. They are always positive.

A1: Being literally open to growth, it is a vulnerable process but without it you can't grow, change and develop. Ss need to see that if they are to grow and learn with each other that, we as teachers, are willing to grow and learn with each other as well. #TeacherMyth teapaw.org/cathwilliams05/status/…
Welcome. Here is our first question for tonight #teachermyth

A2: Legislature has power. Mandates have power. Administration has power. But as educators, the ones in the trenches, we are the ones who have the opportunity to positively impact our students lives everyday in our classrooms- THAT is power. #txeduchat

Teachers and administrators do not become exceptional by accident. They work hard at their job. They reflect on their work and are constantly learning. They collaborate with colleagues to make stronger decisions. And they cultivate meaningful relationships with their students.
