Roberts Middle School
Aviator Agenda: March 28 - April Fools Day
Stepping into the Arena
My favorite description of what excellence in the sports world looks like when no one is looking comes from Anson Dorrance, the legendary University of North Carolina women’s soccer coach. He was driving to work early one morning, and as he passed a deserted field, he noticed one of his players off in the distance doing extra training by herself. He kept driving, but he later left a note in her locker: ‘The vision of a champion is someone who is bent over, drenched in sweat, at the point of exhaustion when no one else is watching.’ The young woman, Mia Hamm, would go on to become one of the greatest players in the history of the sport.
Teachers, I know how hard you have been working. You may think that your effort goes unnoticed, but it is the opposite. We all experience similar struggles and deal with demanding challenges in our pursuit of excellence, regardless of grade level and subject. What you are doing for each and every student at Roberts will impact their lives and set them up for future success. The STAAR Test scores will never reveal the countless hours you prep, the PLC collaboration, differentiated lessons, the mentoring, the coaching, and the love you have for your children. It is game time for our 5th graders. Thank you for never giving up on them! You are the best group of teachers to go to battle with any given day.

TEACHING
NOT IN IT FOR THE INCOME
IN IT FOR THE OUTCOME
YOU SHOULD EXPECT ME TO KEEP GETTING BETTER
GO AWAY MR. THOMAS, I'M READING AND WORKING
TEACH UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE OTHERS TEACH UNTO YOU
ANY CONCERNS THAT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE NOT SMARTER THAN A 5TH GRADER?
EDUCATION IS NOT PREPARATION FOR LIFE; EDUCATION IS LIFE ITSELF
IN THIS ROOM WE DON'T DO EASY; WE MAKE EASY HAPPEN THROUGH HARD WORK
A SUCCESSFUL SCHOOL FAMILY IS A GROUP OF MANY HANDS AND ONE MIND
I LOVE THESE KIDS!
