Dive Brief:

  • AASA, The School Superintendents Association, is launching a "Live Well, Lead Well" campaign to provide resources, support and appreciation for superintendents and their staffs as they navigate ongoing challenges around the COVID-19 pandemic, racial inequities and threats of violence.
  • The campaign includes monthly opportunities for district leaders to connect with colleagues and focus on self care. The campaign will also include a wellness center at AASA’s 2022 National Conference on Education, scheduled for Feb. 17-19 in Nashville, as well as crisis communication materials and templates that help schools address key issues.
  • “Students who aren't well can't learn. Teachers who aren’t well can’t teach. Leaders who aren’t well can’t lead,” said Paul Imhoff, superintendent of Upper Arlington Schools in Ohio and the 2021-22 president of AASA, in a news release. “We need to take care of ourselves so that we are able to serve those in our care. We can't lead if we aren't well. The superintendency is not an individual sport, it is a team sport. We need each other. We need to lock arms and support each other.”

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource

Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and

other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching

practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
