"My most challenging student is not inherently challenging as a human being -- but I need to own that it's challenging for me to work with them. Once I take responsibility for my own emotions, I am now in a position to transform them" @AlexSVenet https://t.co/7vX3lffHrT #edchat

Some kids are nervous about going back to school. Good teachers get that. They understand that the first order of business is to make their classroom a safe place for kids.

So here’s my challenge to admins this year: Spend time in classrooms! It helps you connect with both kids & teachers. It reminds you of the awesome work your teachers do & it reinforces for you the many challenges they face. If you’re an administrator, please be in classrooms.

No one creates success alone. We all need a team to be successful. A positive and united team is a powerful team.

Teachers and administrators do not become exceptional by accident. They work hard at their job. They reflect on their work and are constantly learning. They collaborate with colleagues to make stronger decisions. And they cultivate meaningful relationships with their students.
