It's heartbreaking when a building filled with millions of dollars worth of degrees focuses more on where a kid comes from than the potential they carry. That kind of mindset creates its own trauma. #RuthlessEquity #StartWithTheCrown

Three individual Belzer MS APs on one shared MISSION led by Head Hound, Victor Bush! I love watching my leaders STRETCH and GROW thru both WINS and LOSSES! Cherish my work with MSD Lawrence!

A lot of times, equity work is full of "don't wants" and missing the aspirational parts. What DO we want? How do we get there?

Is survival mode running your school? Let’s break the cycle and build a culture of purpose and progress. Let's talk. #RuthlessEquity #UnfoldTheSoul

Speaking POWER into PRACTICE with Deborah Washington at the ONE OF A KIND SAMS Conference in South Beach!

When you lead without the crown, bias fills the void. Anchor your expectations in equity. 👑 #StartWithTheCrown

Mission is not about the statement, but the work we're actually doing! #MissionStatement #RuthlessEquity

True leadership is about impact. The best leaders inspire, guide, and challenge teachers to grow, ensuring their teams become better every day. Great leaders create great educators. #LeadershipMatters #RuthlessEquity

RT @thomascmurray: **Just Dropped** If your district is still navigating AI policies and guidelines, you won't want to miss this podcast ep…

See those eyes? I'd pay to watch district team pull straws to decide who's going to review the subgroup scapegoat data with this LEADER. Joe MF Maurizio, LEADER of West Avenue School was a Junkyard Dog before I gave it a name.

Everything we do begins and ends with learning—it’s the heart of our mission. #RuthlessEquity

As educators, we don’t just aim to make a difference—we are the difference. #RuthlessEquity

Without a solid foundation, any conversation about racism and equity will ring hollow. Let's put ACTION to our words. #RuthlessEquity

Rochester represented at The SAMS conference! Tiffany Lee is the type of LEADER you're systematically destroying with your lazy devotion to demographics. Get it in while you can because I AM COMING for the soft hands and manicured nails subscribed to the ailment of the month.

Excited to partner with the Junkyard Dogs at CiTi BOCES to dive into Ruthless Equity and make transformative change together! #RuthlessEquity

From THAT school to THEE school—where excellence, equity, and empowerment redefine what’s possible. #SchoolTransformation

We don't play defense! Great leadership doesn’t react to the environment, it transforms it. #LeadWithPurpose #RuthlessEquity

Educators, don’t fear your own shadow. Local results and real buy-in matter more than the demographics that try to intimidate us. Focus on what’s possible, not what’s scary. #RuthlessEquity #StartWithTheCrown

Mark Shellinger is a model for STANDING FOR SOMETHING. Everyone's TALKING...He chases NOTHING because he's too firmly footed in his VALUES. This year's SAM Conference changed MY LIFE, and soon, I'm about to change yours. I'm coming.

Great teachers don’t leave success to chance—they assume nothing, prepare for everything, and respond with evidence. Excellence isn’t luck; it’s intentional. #TeachingExcellence

Children believe in the impossible without hesitation. Maybe it’s time we stop doubting, overthinking, and hesitating—and start embracing their fearless wonder. #ChildlikeFaith #UnfoldTheSoul
