Just finished my second read of School Culture Rewired. The culture scales alone are worth the revisit—such a clear way to understand where a school is and where it can grow. Thanks @ToddWhitaker and @stevegruenert for shaping how we think about culture.

The Scouting America Food Drive delivered a tremendous donation to the Gateway Food Pantry. The continued generosity of our community over the past month reminds us what’s possible when people come together to help others.

I just finished Live Today Well by Fr. Thomas Dailey. Such a thoughtful reminder to slow down & be present. I kept noticing moments of Jesuit influence throughout the book, especially the Examen. It’s a powerful invitation to approach each day with purpose, gratitude, & kindness.

My third marathon is complete — the @IndyMonumental. Each race teaches something new about grit, gratitude, and growth. Thankful for @CNOFinancial and all who make this event possible. Indy reminded me why I run. @fit_leaders #BoycottAverage

Leadership is about learning, growing, and striving to be a little better each day. Grateful to have my article on growing as a leader published in the Missouri Elementary Principal magazine. Proud to share my journey as a principal. @MoAESP, @SLSEPA1, @NAESP

Honored to attend & present at SLU’s Consortium for Human Flourishing workshop on promoting student & educator well-being. Energized by the insights & connections, and grateful for the chance to reflect on what it means to truly flourish in education.

In only two hours, our community filled three carts to the brim with food and contributed over $300 in donations. Your generosity is making a real difference as we work together to stamp out hunger. Thank you to everyone who stepped up today!

Just finished The Blueprint by @bloomer_sa — the perfect read to refocus before the school year starts. Practical, honest, and full of reminders about what matters most as a principal. Grateful for this one.

One of the things I really enjoy is mentoring new administrators. I’m excited to be working with Erik Dessau as he begins his administrative career, and of course I had to get him one of my favorite leadership books by @ToddWhitaker —a must-read for anyone in school leadership.

Running recovery continues! Today was my first run in Forest Park in over a month, and it felt great to be back out there. Even better—I got to break in my new Patrick gear.
