Home schooling has begun here and I can say with absolute conviction that teachers should be paid like CEOs.

Racism is the opposite of #inclusion. Racist language has NO place in our educational system or the leadership of our country. When we remain silent on #racism, we have chosen a side. Inclusion isn’t only about disability. It means everyone, for every reason. #LeadInclusion

“Most schools and classrooms are set up in ways that trigger adolescents to resist,” one school leader tells @jal_mehta and @sarahmfine. “What we need to do is to trigger their instinct to contribute.” nyti.ms/2U6IuiF

Think about where you've seen true growth in your life and what motivated it.
It probably wasn't to lift a B+ to an A-.
Traditional grades are inauthentic. #DitchBook

After responding today to nearly 20 requests for names of schools that "are already doing it," this may bear repeating. Our approach too often is: "Before doing what strong evidence shows is better for kids, I'd like to talk to others who have already done it just to be sure."

The challenge is first to distinguish between productive vs senseless stress. It is productive stress for students to write papers and give speeches based on research they’ve done. It is completely useless stress to push kids into taking AP classes. nyti.ms/2D7CYEh
