    We’re thrilled to announce an exciting new feature on K12Leaders that’s designed to elevate your voice and amplify your impact in the educational community! As educators, we believe in the power of sharing ideas, insights, and experiences to foster growth and innovation. With our new blogging feature, you can now effortlessly share your blog posts on K12Leaders, as well as on your personal blog page, and so much more.

    Here’s How It Works:

    Seamless Posting : When you write a blog post (simply click on Author a Blog), it can be automatically posted on K12Leaders and your personal blog page. Check out my personal blog page for a look at how it works: SimplySuzy

    Community Engagement : Tag your post to be included in a specific K12Leaders community. Don’t see a community that fits? Create one! This is your platform, and we want you to feel at home.

    Boost Your Reach : Reach out to me, Suzy Brooks, K12Leaders Editorial Director, for a chance to have your post reviewed for inclusion in our home page rotation, social media promotions, and upcoming newsletters, reaching over 30,000 educators! Better yet, align your post to our Publishing Calendar (included below)!

    Guidelines for Amplification


    Featured Image : Each post must include a featured image that is free from copyright infringement.
    Author Bio : Include a short bio about yourself so readers can connect with you personally.
    Social Media Handles: We try hard to tag our authors on other social platforms. Be sure to include this information if you’d like us to add social tags!

    Please Note: Not all blog posts will qualify for amplification by the K12Leaders editorial team. For your post to be considered, the topic must be of interest to a broad audience, timely and/or timeless, and it may be subject to minor editing for readability.

    Our goal is to ensure that your content is impactful and resonates with our diverse community of educators.

  • Teachers ARE Leaders!!!!

    Teachers ARE Leaders!!!!

    “Leadership is not about being in charge.

    It is about taking care of those in your charge.”

    ~ Simon Sinek

    Let’s get something loud and clear right off the bat: YOU ARE A LEADER. Yes, YOU! Whether you’re a first-year teacher, a seasoned principal, a lunch lady, a substitute, a speech therapist, or a band director, we are ALL responsible for leading the education industry forward. K12Leaders is calling your name, and here’s why you need to answer the call.

    Forget the Title – It’s About Impact!

    Ever hear the saying, “You don’t need a title to be a leader”? It’s true. You don’t need a corner office or a string of letters after your name to make a difference. Think of it this way: If a nurse can lead a patient to better health and a paralegal can steer a case to success, why can’t you, in whatever role you play, lead our students to greatness?  Every role is vital, every person a leader.

    “The function of leadership is to produce more leaders,

    not more followers.”

    ~ Ralph Nader

    Are you leaving Twitter?

    Don’t be fooled!! Other platforms don’t prioritize education like we do. K12Leaders is designed BY teachers FOR teachers. We get you. We share your struggles, your triumphs, and your passion for shaping young minds. So why not join a platform where your voice matters!!? ?

    The Education Profession: A Collective Force

    By and large, the education profession is full of talented, dedicated professionals who can make a huge difference if they start seeing themselves as leaders. They don’t need the fancy sign on their desk or the accolades. They just need to speak up, champion the cause, and fight for what kids deserve.

    “A leader is one

    who knows the way,

    goes the way,

    and shows the way.”

    ~ John C. Maxwell

    If Not YOU, Then WHO?

    So, to all the educators out there—if not YOU, then WHO? Who will lead the change, advocate for students, and inspire the next generation? We need you at K12Leaders to do the hard work, together.

    Join us. Lead with us. Be the difference.

    See you there!

    @Suzy, on behalf of the K12Leaders Team
