A few nuggets from SanFran conference: 1. Connection before Correction 2. Suspensions have a reverse effect on learning. 3. We must practice, model & grow compassion. 4. The brain recognizes vocalized compassion (what & how we speak matters ) 5. #sd36learn

Saying farewell to my friend today. My first VP partner & mentor is off to open the new high school. Thoughtful, intelligent, patient, courageous, compassionate & experienced... she has it all. We will miss her at Tweeds! Grandview Heights is lucky to have her. 🐾💚🐾 #sd36learn

During these winter conditions, we could not make it without the diligent help of our daytime custodian, Tony. His hard work every morning makes everyone’s work day easier and safer. Thank you for always being here for us. Sabre family PRIDE🐾🐾

A Repair Kit for Grading. Back in 2007 this book changed my practice. It was the beginning of my journey towards fair & meaningful assessment. The 15 Fixes for Broken Grades resonated with my beliefs but wasn’t necessarily evident in my practice. Books can =change . #sd36learn

VP Maion (former Nat’l team softball player)told a student she would play catch w/ him on the last day. She forgot, he didn’t. He arrived at the office this morning with his glove. As soon as she realized, she promptly changed her clothes, grabbed her gear & hit the field.❤️❤️❤️
