Hello, amazing educators!

I recently had the incredible opportunity to chat with Dr. Stephen Peters, a former teacher and principal who has become a highly sought-after keynote speaker. Our conversation was rich and inspiring, covering a range of topics that resonate deeply within our community.

We explored the beginnings of his career, the powerful intersection of sports and leadership, and how he has managed to keep his teaching spirit alive even after stepping into the role of a keynote speaker. Dr. Peters also shared his journey back to principalship after years of inspiring others from the stage, and he left us with some thought-provoking insights for all educators.

I would love to hear your thoughts on our conversation! How do you balance leadership and teaching in your own journey? What insights do you have about returning to the classroom after time away? 

Join the discussion and connect with me on TikTok @ThePhenomenalTeacher and X @Mr100Teacher. Let’s continue to uplift and inspire one another in our mission to be phenomenal educators!

Also, don’t forget to check out Dr. Peters' books: "Do You Know About Me To Teach Me" and "Teaching To Capture and Inspire All Learners." They are fantastic resources for anyone looking to deepen their impact in the classroom.

Be phenomenal,

Mr. Short
