What was the response when Stella a secondary learner asked, “Will you join us?” in a call to action to support personalized learning? The picture speaks for itself… the… ENTIRE room full of educators standing! #NCPLI24 @NorthernCassPLI

A special thank you to Bob Melvin AND Kyle Harrison for stopping to sign a baseball on the way out of the stadium tonight after the exciting walk-off win! @SFGiants making it easy to teach the next generation to share their time and talent!!
In October I had the honor of being one of the Networking & Storytelling Stewards at the Aurora Institute. I wrote a piece about the inspirational educators, learners, schools, and systems I had the chance to encounter and some hopes for our sector. aurora-institute.org/cw_post…

In a totally predictable way, @CorySteiner10, Tom Klapp, & @J_EndersonSD couldn’t even get out of the room after presenting even though it was at the close of the conference! A full room got to learn about giving Studio access to ALL kids @NCSD97 Amazing!! @Aurora_Inst #aurora23
What an honor it was to share the space facilitating today with @LindsayUnified and Red Bridge! We were packed full with people wanting to learn about our K-2 agency work. Thank you @Aurora_Inst #Aurora23

I was reading the latest piece from the Learner-Centered Leadership Lab (LCLL) that @TranscendBuilds and @Lindsay_USD lead and was re-grounded in so many important findings. Take 7 minutes and give it a read- much to reflect on! transcendeducation.org/playl…
When your organization’s piece gets into @USATODAY ! Schools in crisis. Here's how we can fix education in America and ensure our kids succeed usatoday.com/story/opinion/2…
Student well-being is often seen as an add-on, but what if it was core to the school’s learning model? Van Ness Elementary partnered with Transcend to create the whole child model, which embeds student well-being into all aspects of a learner’s experience. bit.ly/VanNessPartnership
Check out some of the data! All of you brilliant people and organizations, take a look, it's worth it. @PanoramaEd @andrewcalkins @VirgelHammonds @katiemartinedu @Lindsay_USD @sralopes @BethRabbitt @brholland @AASAHQ @EdReimagined @sturgis_chris @EmpowerCBE @YuMingSchool
@JDPoon I just wanted you to know the Student Agency piece you did back in 2018 still has me coming back for gems to help us drive the work forward! Thank you for your constant thinking and sharing!

This concept was so important when we did this webinar, and now it’s even more essential that we design using what others have learned during this pandemic. Borrow and contextualize to accelerate for kids!
Schools can use an R&D process as continuous improvement. In a recent conversation, @NikNamba @TranscendBuilds described how, and emphasized this important method. aurora-institute.org/event/u… teapawt.net/Aurora_Inst/status/138…
@TranscendBuilds friends check these out!
If you are planning on (or are already) helping students return to school, please read these REAL examples of practices schools are using to make this approach more realistic and effective for kids and adults!
It was an honor to learn from these amazing leaders! 7 Superintendents share what they learned about leadership in 2020. #suptchat #Leader2Leader @Lindsay_USD @TranscendBuilds transcendeducation.org/playl…
