Blue Haze Elementary first grade classrooms transformed into oceans today. After reading Three Little Fish and the Big Bad Shark, students answered math review questions so they could earn keys to unlock a Breakout box. #empoweringbears @BlueHazeWSISD @kdpearson @viewsfromfirst

"Do not think you can be brave with your life and your work and never disappoint anyone. It doesn't work that way." - @BreneBrown
Be brave enough to disappoint people. To stand for something. Making this world a better place requires us to be our truest,
biggest, bravest selves.

Dear Educators,
Never take things personally when it comes to your students behavior. It is rarely about you and more about what they are going through.
Remembering this has helped me so much.

It’s not just students who need Maslow. Teachers need:
1) feel safe / supported
2) emotional connection/ relationships
3) feel respected
4) attention/ appreciation
5) value within the team
6) Volition/ autonomy
7) innovation/ creativity
8) self care

Here’s what I know: you will not forget 2020. So many of us look for connection, reassurance, regulation. Be the one. Show up. Be kind. Give it away however you can today.

If they praise you, SHOW UP and DO THE WORK. If they criticize you, SHOW UP and DO THE WORK. If no one even notices you, just SHOW UP and DO THE WORK. Just keep showing up, doing the work, and leading the way.

The WSISD Paw (Food) Pantry provided free food to 200 families today thanks to our partnership with the Tarrant Area Food Bank. A huge shout out to all our volunteers for preparing bags and boxes and helping with the distribution! #empoweringbears #bethedifference @TAFoodBank

School is NOT closed for the year. The building is. If you listen closely you can hear the hum of hard working teachers, administrators, and support staff preparing to save the day in ways and means never seen before. Yes, we are brokenhearted, but these broken hearts will lead

Admit when you don’t know something.
Admit when you thought you knew something, but it turns out, you don’t.
Admit when you are wrong or not completely right.
Admit when you don’t feel as equipped to handle or answer something.
Admit when you need help from others. – at Chicago, IL

A school Superintendent said something profound in his address cancelling school for the next 3 weeks. “In the end, it will be impossible to know if we overreacted or did too much, but it will be QUITE apparent if we under reacted or did too little.”
Hear those words my friends.
