Memorization is not in the top ten skills needed today.
Yes, we need knowledge, but we also need to consider that we have instant access to so much information.
If school is about preparing students for the future, we need to shift our focus.

We should not assume that a lack of motivation is an intrinsic problem. As leaders, we should first evaluate whether or not we've created an environment that inspires our employees. In order to spark motivation, people must feel seen and valued.

Wow! That sure carries a lot of meaning! ❤️
Just got a personal phone call from my superintendent. He reassured me that we will be online and if we go back and I don’t feel comfortable that I can stay online. I trust him. So I’m going to breathe now. #returntoschool
