Belief is a powerful tool. When we see the brilliance in every student, before they see it in themselves, we unlock potential they didn’t know they had. #StartWithTheCrown

When you're at your best, you're magnetic. Don’t shrink yourself to meet the kid where they are, stand tall and pull them up to where you are. Start with the crown, not the kid.

Connected with Cheryl McCray out of Hamilton County Schools in Chattanooga at The BOND Conf at Bowie State University!

Connected powerfully with Principal Rashaad Williams out of Chattanooga at The BOND Conference at Bowie State University. Honored to deliver the keynote and humbled by the sell-out of Ruthless Equity!

We’re done being that school. We’re building THE (E) school, where equity isn’t a buzzword, it’s the baseline.

What I need to know about a kid’s background will find me, and when it does, it’s just context, not a compass. It’s a piece of the puzzle, not the rulebook for how I teach them.

Met Ruthless Equity warrior and MCPS Eng Department Head, Rosie Justilien at the BOND Conference in MD!

If your words don’t reflect belief, your expectations won’t either. Stop calling kids “low”. Your language sets the bar before they ever have a chance to rise. #RuthlessEquity

If you're still on the fence about Ruthless Equity, take a look at this copy. This isn’t a book you skim. It’s one you work through. #RuthlessEquity

I’m not here for the performative speeches and polished platitudes. If it’s not boots on the ground equity - real work, real results - I’m not interested. Miss me with the hot air.

Had the pleasure of having this young prince introduce me at the BOND Conference in MD!

Failure isn't the opposite of success, it’s part of the path. The best leaders, educators, and teams don’t hide their losses… they learn from them. All winners have losing records. Keep going.

How can we achieve equity when there are seven different definitions floating around? I break it down to its simplest form—clear, actionable, and real. Equity isn’t theory. It’s practice.

It's been an honor to coach this Junkyard Dog, Edyza Deynes, leader of Sunnyside ES in Lawrence!

I’ve worked in elite private schools with great culture—and some with toxic culture. I’ve worked in schools in the hood with incredible culture—and some that were a mess. The label doesn’t matter. Private or public isn’t the point. Culture is. That’s what shapes the experience.

Imagine a 20% boost in student engagement, a 9% drop in disruptions, and gaining a full hour of academic focus every single day. That’s not a dream. That’s what Ruthless Equity delivers. Let’s stop admiring the problem and start changing the outcome.

Mark your calendar! I’ll be joining an incredible lineup at the 2025 Lawrence Learning Summit. Catch me on July 21st at Lawrence North High School for a keynote that will challenge, inspire, and move your team forward. Let’s build something unforgettable.

Teaching at a Title I school doesn’t lower the bar, it raises the stakes. #RuthlessEquity

No surprise Forest Glen ES in Lawrence received the Excellence in Early Literacy Award under the lead of Head Hound, Kelli Lovingfoss!

I don’t endorse many books, but when I do, it’s because they deliver. The PLC Dashboard by Brig Leane is one of those books. Straightforward, practical, and built for real results. If you're serious about transforming your PLC work, this one's a must.
