If you are not following @LYSNation on Twitter, then you missed the Top 10 LYS tweets from the past week 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. Leadership is about staying above the fray and pettiness – leadership is about courage, valor, humility and keeping your focus on the mission! (By @brewerhm)

 

  1. Every time bullying politicians say, “God has been taken out of our schools,” we will call out this blatant lie. It bears false witness against teachers—our fellow believers—who incarnate God’s love all day, every day. It is a Devil’s lie. Unchristian, unkind, un-American, untrue. (By @pastors4txkids)

 

  1. “We want to create reading classrooms where discussions are not teacher-student, rather reader-reader.” -Traci Tousant (By @CabidaCain)

 

  1. “The free public education, while guaranteed by our state constitution, is not actually granted by a government, but is a provision of God. Faith convicts us that all children deserve the chance at a great education.” (By @pastors4OKkids)

 

  1. Just found out that The University of St. Thomas is using The Fundamental 5 (Cain & Laird) in its Master of Education program! Go Fighting Celts!!! (By @LYSNation)

 

  1. Dan Patrick says his plan is to raise teacher pay by $10,000 on average. There are over 350,000 teachers. That’s over $3.5 billion. Better start telling Texans where you plan to get that money, Dan. Your credibility on this topic, like your poll numbers, is sinking like a rock. (By @CollierForTexas)

 

  1. Confidence is what happens when you’ve done the hard work that entitles you to succeed. – Pat Summitt (By @CoachMotto)

 

  1. Successful people aren’t successful because they’re naturally motivated… They’re successful because they make their dreams happen by showing up and putting in the work every day… Even when they don’t feel like it. (By @melrobbins)

 

  1. If teachers have to be highly qualified, why doesn’t Betsy DeVos? (By @StevenSinger3)

 

  1. Don’t ask if your dreams are crazy, ask if they are crazy enough…. (By ABREG1)

 

Think. Work. Achieve.
