It's easy to be passionate about something when it's new.

When the excitement is still fresh and the results haven't tested you yet.

The real test comes later, on the days when passion isn't loud, when purpose feels distant, when nobody's watching and it would be easy to just phone it in.

That's where relentless actually lives.
Not in the big moments.
On the ordinary days when you show up fully anyway.

What's one thing you're staying committed to, even on the hard days? 💛

As conversations around student screen time continue, new federal guidance encourages school leaders to ask a different question:

Does this technology improve teaching and learning?

The U.S. Department of Education is calling on schools and districts to evaluate digital tools based on instructional value, effectiveness, accessibility, and student outcomes, while supporting educators with the professional learning they need to use technology well. https://t.congressweb.com/l/?DPJODTLVUWPRDIV

August recess is a great time to see Congress at work in your own community.

Many Members of Congress post their community events, school visits, and public appearances online while they're back in their districts. Following their homebase schedules is an easy way to stay informed and see what issues they're discussing with constituents.

If you attend an event this August, share a photo or highlight from your experience and tag NAESP—we'd love to see school leaders engaging in advocacy across the country.
