Superintendent, Husband, Father, Father-in-law, and proud Papa. Opinions are my own.
I am surprised and yet, not surprised at the lack of understanding of the importance of Miles Davis upon American and world culture. I found the attached note in my archives and feel that anyone can benefit from this perspective. Enjoy!

We all benefit from good coaching. Here is something I found a couple years ago that still resonates well today. Coach Wooden was more than a basketball coach and his wisdom is still worth sharing. Enjoy!

Please make sure to take some time for yourself, even if it is just a few minutes. You each make such a difference to others; why shouldn’t you do the same for yourselves?

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and you may not realize that some of the people around you right now are silently in crisis. It’s ok to not be ok. Please know that there are people that care and others ready to listen when you need them.

Don’t flunk the future! The President has signed an order to close the Dept. of Education and has already withheld funding and cut staff – all counter to what the public wants. Urge Congress to support education with the @edfunding toolkit at cef.org/advocacy/
Advocacy | Education Funding, Policy, & More | Committee for Education Funding (CEF) | Supporting Investment in Education
Learn about our advocacy missions -- bringing awareness to the public & congress about the importance of educational funding to the greater community & nation.

No matter how much tech is around us, how much things advance, I really truly believe this with all my heart…
People will gravitate to core values, to the goodness around and to what has been instilled, to the things that bring meaning and that matter. ❤️

What do you consider essential in living your best life? That’s what I hope to discover and implement for this year. I will also find out what is not essential to me that is taking time away from the impact I could make and adjust accordingly. Be the difference to others and yourself!

Aim to do and be better today than you were yesterday. Take a moment to think of something or someone you are grateful for. Exercise a little (or a lot), eat smart and well, and get your sleep. Rinse. Repeat. #EduSky
