1. If I had to choose between taking a punch or listening to
someone complain about "unmotivated" students, then I'd fill up my
own ice pack. (BY @BluntEducator)

fewer words than their more affluent counterparts. (By @tgrierhisd)
3. Excellence requires clarity of purpose. (By @blitzkrieg607)
4. If you evaluate a 1st year teacher the same as a 20-year
veteran, you're not embracing a system of growth and progress. (By @millerg6)
5. Despite the rhetoric, voucher programs will likely
subsidize private school for those who can already afford it. (By @RYHTexas)
6. If being retained increases the risk of dropping out of
school, why do so many state plans base promotion on a single test and favor
it? (By @Snowmanlearning)
7. Suffer the pain of discipline or suffer the pain of
regret. (By @CoachKWisdom)

strengthened when quiet reflection is followed by effective action. (By
@blitzkrieg607)
9. Texas school start date debate pits educators against tourism
industry. (By @JWalshtxlawdawg)

they would have more days to teach content before the STAAR test. Good for
teachers and kids. (By @LYSNation)
