A1: Less is more. Choose one topic and build a compelling why, the solution and pay special attention to emotions. Don’t forget you are the expert! #leadlap

I was reminded that if we’re lucky we can do things within our control in a time that feels chaotic. Inspired by one line I felt driven to write. #leadlap @bethhouf.bsky.social @burgessdave.bsky.social @jaybilly2.bsky.social

A3: Keep helping students and staff navigate hard topics by taking time to listen and talk through concerns. #leadlap
March 1, 2025 at 3:59 PM
A3: Keep celebrating and embracing diversity, equity, equality, inclusion, belonging, and the belief that we are truly better together. These words and practices have been weaponized and the effects are already crushing. #leadlap
March 1, 2025 at 3:58 PM
Q3: What must we ensure that we KEEP doing in spite of these changes? #leadlap

A2) when kids are influenced by what they hear without fully grasping the depth of what they are saying we have the responsibility to teach them to honor ALL human beings and although this should not be political our current reality can make it challenging to guide these conversations #leadlap

A2: The hardest thing has been the normalization of hate/bullying/rudeness that can spill over to students. The modeling of leadership matters so much. #leadlap
March 1, 2025 at 3:50 PM
Q2: What has been the hardest part of these political changes for you as an educator? #leadlap
March 1, 2025 at 3:44 PM
I’m going to throw a couple more questions out but this is more of a conversation and support group than traditional chat this morning. #leadlap
March 1, 2025 at 3:43 PM
Q1: So much has happened politically in the past two months. How do you stay current on changes that impact you role as an educator? #leadlap
