Marathon training has definitely tested me, but today was a reminder to keep showing up and keep moving forward.13 Sep 2026 17:58 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mvg6bu2amk27https://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mvd74hvvcs2dRecently finished Introduction to the Spiritual Life by Brant Pitre. A thoughtful reminder that the spiritual life is not simply about knowing our faith, but living it—through prayer, virtue, and the daily effort to become the person God calls us to be. A worthwhile read.12 Sep 2026 13:35 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mvd74hvvcs2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mtqzse57tc2fYesterday I had a great time at the EducationPlus 5K Run/Walk! I chose to run and was happy with a decent time for my first race since finishing PT. Even better, I got to run it alongside some good friends. @TedHiff, @EducPlus23 Aug 2026 14:46 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mtqzse57tc2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mtahbptndk27I recently finished The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins. One idea that has stayed with me: other people’s actions, choices and reactions are not mine to control. There is freedom in accepting that and focusing instead on what I can control—my own choices and response.17 Aug 2026 00:32 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mtahbptndk27https://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mszsr3uujc2eThought & Action for the Day:14 Aug 2026 09:09 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mszsr3uujc2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3msyppwkdqs22The past two days have been full of learning, collaboration, & preparing for a great school year ahead. I’m grateful for the opportunity to learn alongside so many wonderful colleagues as we continue working together to help every student be successful.

What struck me most wasn't just Moreau's vision for education, but his perseverance through years of criticism and disappointment. "The mind will not be cultivated at the expense of the heart."12 Jul 2026 19:31 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqhw5fdlkc2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mq4zgedju226Two months without running. Eighteen weeks until the Indianapolis Marathon. Today the training officially began. Ran six miles without stopping for the first time in months. Back to work. @indymonumental.bsky.social08 Jul 2026 11:31 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mq4zgedju226https://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mpyyef6vyc26Just finished The Data Book for Educators Who Don't Like Data by Michael Roberts. Easily the best book on school data I've read. Practical, thoughtful, and full of ideas I'll carry into the new school year. Highly recommended for school leaders. @solutiontree.bsky.social06 Jul 2026 21:01 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpyyef6vyc26https://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mpjjooxx522xA leadership book should leave you with more questions than answers. From Leading to Succeeding by Douglas Reeves did exactly that. It challenged me to think less about activity and more about impact. That's a worthwhile reflection heading into a new school year.30 Jun 2026 17:29 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpjjooxx522xhttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3movqhg4gik2pOne lesson I took from Coffee with the Custodian: culture isn't built through programs or slogans—it's built through relationships. Every interaction matters, and trust remains the foundation of a great school. @SolutionTree, @drbradjohnson.bsky.social22 Jun 2026 20:37 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3movqhg4gik2phttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mod7tsm3yk2vThought for the Day:15 Jun 2026 11:51 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mod7tsm3yk2vhttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mo2fa5a7s22fJust finished The Anxious Generation. It reinforced a simple truth: kids need play, friendship, independence, and the chance to learn from mistakes. As an educator, it left me thinking about how we help young people develop confidence and resilience.11 Jun 2026 23:34 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mo2fa5a7s22fhttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mo2f4a3ejc2fGrateful for the opportunity to connect with fellow school leaders through SLSEPA. Good conversations, new ideas, and a reminder that strong schools are built by people willing to learn from one another. @SLSEPA1, @MoAESP, @NAESP11 Jun 2026 23:32 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mo2f4a3ejc2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mnb5ds2jks24Thomas Paine, Common Sense, 177601 Jun 2026 22:36 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mnb5ds2jks24https://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mn5qi4lxis2rJust finished the U.S. Constitution.

One takeaway that stayed with me is the idea that we spend too much time trying to be who others expect us to be instead of becoming who we were created to be. A good reminder heading into a new week.17 May 2026 19:36 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mm34chrgkc25https://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mlmp7cyaec2eThought & Action for the Day:12 May 2026 02:05 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mlmp7cyaec2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mkkg6be2s22kThought & Action for the Day:28 Apr 2026 10:52 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkkg6be2s22khttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mkj5naozb22rhttps://www.stltoday.com/opinion/editorial/article_28aefa8d-a877-45f7-892e-fa649874e12e.html#tracking-source=home-top-story27 Apr 2026 22:47 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkj5naozb22rhttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mkgmnd6tp226https://www.stltoday.com/opinion/editorial/article_58504152-3a26-42cb-918b-0b81370498e9.html#tracking-source=home-top-story26 Apr 2026 22:38 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkgmnd6tp226https://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mjepyxbs722dThought & Action for the Day:13 Apr 2026 11:07 +0000at://did:plc:nfplsnk432bv7txwldpba4ea/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjepyxbs722dhttps://bsky.app/profile/drkeenoy.bsky.social/post/3mjctw5eifs25Yesterday’s half marathon was fun and fast—one of those days where everything just clicked.
