My #OneWord2018 has kept me up at night!! I have filtered through, mulled over and explored several words... inspire... share... dare... dream... brave... and I have decided on... This may seem like a lofty word, however, when you love what you do; you want to be your ALL, give your ALL, and explore ALL that is out there! With ALL comes great responsibility! ALL means prioritize, find balance, and spread your passion.
ALL means loving and respecting ALL students, even when it is hard. ALL means finding ways to #PumpThePositive because #kidsdeserveit and #teachersdeserveit ALL of the time. ALL means giving your time to ALL that is important in your life...find time for family, your passions, new learning with your PLN, and yourself. ALL means we are ALL called to be leaders...students, teachers, and administrators. ALL means we are ALL responsible for the culture of our schools. ALL means we are ALL in this together...through the changes ahead. ALL means committing to personal learning, sharing and celebrating ALL ideas that ignite innovation, promote student choice and voice, and benefit learning. ALL means ALL. Yes, ALL is a lofty word for the new year, but I dedicate myself to setting out to accomplish ALL in 2018. ALL means ALL. It is ALL important and it is ALL worthy of my time. I will be my ALL. I will give my ALL. And, I will continue to explore it ALL.
