Tomorrow's Focus: Teach Well

Tomorrow will be an incredibly busy day. We'll begin with a pep talk about play practice, and then all 65 students will practice for the play for a good two hours. After that students will have time to play, and then time to work on their biography portraits, more research, and more play.

We'll take a few minutes to talk about playing in the woods. The students love to play in the forest, but there isn't always enough supervision for that, so I'll outline when that's possible and when it isn't. We'll also review a few playground rules and acknowledge some playground successes too.

After school I'll attend the Fair Funding Rally in Boston, and then attend a professional learning event with a colleague. I am deeply committed to the need for our state to fairly fund all the schools in the state so that every child has a top-notch education and wonderful opportunity. To well support our state's children and their education, is to create a strong future for our state--a future where the citizens will be able to reach for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness with confidence, knowledge, positive perspective, and ability.

What's most important about tomorrow is staying positive as everyone around me is working hard to promote good work, positive advocacy, and a strong future for themselves and others. Good energy, good outlook, and good support are all vital to that goal.
