Good Morning #bfc530 Fresh off a Daddy-Daughters Road Trip that my oldest said she wished she had a time machine to do it again. Great Weekend no matter how tired I am today

The grade at the moment is C-. There are a lot of reasons that I won’t go into, but I am attempting to turn it around for my Ss on my end. #bfc530#teachthebabies
No grade. Working towards mastery, with ups and downs, but the ups have been much higher than the downs lower. Innovative thinking is growing in our HS. Big Win! #bfc530
C+, I have been able to slow down instead of rushing through curriculum, but still have a bunch of things I can improve upon for next year's start. #bfc530
Teaching, working w/Ss & Ps It's going well; last year's reflections are making this year better. My new Service role is going well too, but lots of room for improvement. Looking forward to debriefing w/my Division Heads. #bfc530
Also, I'm attempting to be more diligent in responding to things around school that I feel are time wasters. This does not always sit well with peers, but it is for the good of the student. #bfc530

I'm assessing this year through the lens of gradeless classroom ==> I'm well on my way to achieving the standards agreed upon at the beginning of the year.

My grade for the 1st quarter ... hmm ... B ... i have been doing some great things, but there have been some that have not been quite so good. Final evaluation ... WINNING #bfc530
So far this year gets a 4 (standards based report cards). In so many ways it is above average. Love my team and colleagues, and new admin is making a big difference. #bfc530#wwprsd
On a positive note I was able to get away for a couple of days to this beautiful place and recharge. And saw this big guy on my way out! #bfc530#camping#greatweekend
Dont like the idea of a grade...we are working on continuous improvement. Its not about fulfilling what is asked for...its about doing the best we can and a little better every day. #bfc530
You guys are so hard on yourselves! Good that you still want to improve, but your super student-centric attitudes show you are rocking it each day! #bfc530
How we assess ourselves is a reflection of our values as teachers. What‘s important to us? How are we moving in that direction? If one path is blocked, where is there another path? Or how can we make one? #bfc530
We need to be vulnerable, fall down, and get back up if we are going to model the skills students really need to suceed in life. That doesn't happen by playing it safe so we can be comfortable... #BFC530
I would give the school year a solid "A" as I have upped the rigor in all AP classes, student numbers are way up, and my NHS chapter has big plans in the works! #bfc530
PS: I bet you are. Great leaders set the tone, delegate, achieve consensus/rally the troops. They don't know everything. It's why there are leaders & troops:) #bfc530
Hey Stacey. I reckon it was me missing. I check in when I can, but I miss long stretches at a time. Always good to know my friends are here tho #bfc530
