Quotables

  • Students are coming to their classrooms with different needs, and that really isn’t being acknowledged.
  • As leaders, a part of that responsibility is kind of being a good model, being compassionate, being open to be receptive to the needs of your teachers.
  • There are things that we can change to bring excitement into our day. And sometimes that is enough to distract the brain from the ho hum.
