As a teacher, you should never want a student leaving class feeling defeated or deflated. As an admin, you should never want a teacher leaving school feeling defeated or deflated. Be compassionate, available, supportive, and encouraging.

Teacher retention: if you want to keep the best teachers, treat them like they are the best. Few teachers leave an environment where they feel valued, supported, appreciated, and treated like professionals. This is more important now than ever!

STAAR glitches today are unacceptable. When will #txlege listen to our teachers that this assessment is essentially abusive to our children, and no good for their academic development? It’s outrageous to us that the best professional counsel of our educators is spurned. @TAMSATX

A7 Many times, I have thought it would disloyal to question my leaders. This talks about addressing concerns with your leader but once the decision is made, following through as if it was your idea. #BookStudyAL3 @E3AmandaLE

A6 I think change is hard sometimes just because of the unknown. In working with teachers some are more ready and willing to change than others. While change is challenging, and the work involved is hard, change itself does not have to be hard. #BookStudyAL3 @E3AmandaLE

A5 Once leaders have shared their vision with purpose, they must be demanding. Only by stretching ourselves to reach higher standards will be successful. #BookStudyAL3 @E3AmandaLE

A4 He addressees fear and naysayers and the advice given is to listen to everyone you need to and then go with your fearless instinct. I am definitely working on not letting my fears keep me from doing what I know is right. #BookStudyAL3 @E3AmandaLE

A3 "Mission, goals, strategy and vision are conventional terms to indicate what organizations set out to accomplish. Purpose is the destination of the vision. Leaders must embed their own sense of purpose into the heart of every follower."Colin Powell #BookstudyAL3 @E3AmandaLE

A1 It is providing a lot of insight into guiding principals of leadership. Leading with respect, trust as well as vulnerability as a leader. One of the quotes I found empowering was that followers should always know where their leaders are taking them and for what purpose.
