Allowing a student to retake an assessment communicates you believe in them and their ability to do better.

A teacher told me today: β€œIt’ll be ok. And if it doesn’t work out, we’ll do it differently next year.” Attitudes like that are a blessing to a principal... and to a school. I’m just sayin’.

Happy Elizabeth Peratrovich Day! In 1941, a badass Tlingit woman saw a sign in her village that said "No Natives Allowed" so she CLAPPED BACK, wrote to the governor, hecked around and championed the passage of the U.S.'s first anti-discrimination law in 1945. ✊🏼

I know we’re supposed to make our decisions based on the needs of the students... but we can never discount the needs of the adults in the school. They’re the ones taking care of the kids. And they want what’s best for students as well.

Does anyone else feel like standardized testing and evals right now are kind of like trying to teach someone to swim while they're drowning.

This year we’ve been given a golden opportunity to revamp teaching and learning. Let’s make the most of it! Let’s leave ineffective, unfair, discriminatory practices behind forever. Let’s embrace & adopt our most creative, engaging, fair & powerful tools & methods.
