If you are not following @LYSNation on Twitter, then you missed the Top 10 LYS Tweets from the week of June 12, 2016 when they were first posted. And if you are on Twitter, you might want to check out the Tweeters who made this week’s list.
1. Not sure how many times it needs to be said, but if you’re applying for a job, know the district you are applying to. Do your homework. (By @woscholar)
2. Vouchers are a political distraction from the state’s top priority: Providing a quality education to all Texas children. (By @Coalition4TxEd)
3. For teens, sight of social media “likes” activates the same brain circuits as eating chocolate and winning money. (By @anniemurphypaul)
4. Hard work usually prevails over better talent. Talent equals potential. Work equals movement forward. (By @TinneyTroy)
5. A transparent leader may not always be popular, but hey, leadership isn’t about popularity. (By @DanVForbes)
6. There is no growth without change, no change without loss, and no loss without pain. Bottom line: If you’re not hurting, you’re not leading. (By @pauljsohn)
7. The people who are still with you at the end of the day are the ones worth keeping. (By @WiseWilbert)
8. Texas public school teachers labor valiantly to educate our children while Texas Legislators try every conceivable way to shortchange them. Unacceptable! (By @pastors4txkids)
9. Too few school Superintendents have the courage or political savvy to stand up to school boards that want the status quo or are self-serving. (By @tgrierhisd)
10. Don’t fear opposition. Expect it. And use it as an opportunity to fuel your growth. (By @stevenfurtick)
Think. Work. Achieve. Your turn…
