No Matter the Test Scores!!

To all educators and pre-service educators... no matter the I- Step results, the reform pressures "felt" from those who rarely set a foot inside any classroom for a significant stay ... you are making an incredible difference in the lives of your students!! I see it daily as we all do... and in 25 plus years of being in schools like so many of you... we are in changing times where the sustainable diverse growth occurs from the bottom up!! Those teaching in this vocation of service, are the "heroes" in this life time and your dedication, your intuitive intelligent spirit and mind will intimately impact our future world citizens... stay your course, keep an open mind and build those emotional connections with your students!! Stay connected by asking of yourself, what you would ask of your students!
