Yesterday I saw a student for the first time in awhile, she's been out of school.
Instead of saying: "Where have you been?" or "Why have you been gone?
I greeted her with "I miss you!"
Her face literally LIT up. 😀
Let's remember our words have power so choose them wisely.

Treat the custodian with the same respect as the principal.
Every person in the school building is a leader and you would be surprised how many kids talk to the custodian, bus driver, cafeteria staff because of trust.
Don’t underestimate “non” teachers. We’re ALL teachers! ❤️
