Growing Excellence (+10 for ALL)
I thoroughly enjoy Toby Mac's music, but I think I like following him on Instagram and Facebook more. Every day there is something inspirational that keeps me focused on the important things. Today, I want to share one of those things with you. All too often, we get tired and think that we really can't change what's going on in the classroom, and so we avoid confronting it and fix our minds on dealing with it.This week, I want to push you to focus on this quote and ask yourself this question. "If I want things to change, am I ready change first?" As long we continue with the same old behaviors, our results never change, but if we make a stronger investment and double down on our belief in ourselves and our abilities, we will see a better outcome. Kids deserve our best investment because it could be just the thing that will forever change their outcome.
College AND Career
On March 24, seniors in Bryan Price and Tyler Terry's economics classes attended their first virtual college fair which was hosted by Region 10 ESC in Dallas. The students were able to chat live with over 100 colleges and universities in Texas and out of state straight from their chromebooks. Students found the event beneficial as they had the opportunity to see the school, chat with school representatives and register themselves to win a $1000 scholarship just for participating
Check out this career research projects from Trey Miller and Vilia Payne's classes.
