Now is the time to shift our focus from test scores (a dying, oppressive data system) to measuring student AGENCY through classroom reflections, listening sessions, performance assessments, project-based learning, surveys, & more. Sky is the limit! #StreetData @JamilaDugan

#STEM learning isn’t just the robots & coding & expensive resources… It’s also about relationships kids build with each other & building real-world relevant connections to the content. #DailySTEM

We read a beautiful book called, "Clouds" in our outdoor "indoor" classroom. It is about the relationship that evolves through the years between a mother & daughter. @cchopp @ComstockPS #STEMAcademy

Most of my work as a math teacher isn’t even math. It’s helping students believe that they can also do math. We don’t talk about that enough. -- José Vilson, Teacher

Some grounding questions for this school year: What is my radical dream? Who am I am dreaming with? How am I living out that dream? The pull to move from a space of loss and worry will be strong this year, but the kids need us to DREAM!

LEADERS!!!! Sometimes the BEST IDEAS happen when we’re not thinking about OTHER THINGS. Take the time to JUST SIT. I know it’s a busy time of the year…but find me a time that’s not. JUST. SIT. #1minwalk2work #LeadFromWhereYouAre #CraftingTheCulture #HackingLeadership
