REST

BY WALLACE CALEB BATES Some nights, I do not have the words, energy, or even the guilt about not doing more. Just stillness, and maybe that is the lesson. We live in a world that runs on more: more hours, more hustle, more proof that we deserve to exist in the rooms we have already been invited into.  But the truth is: rest is not a reward. It is a requirement. It is not what comes after you have earned it; it allows you to keep going. Even God, after six days of creating everything we know, took the seventh day to rest. Not because He needed to, but maybe to show us we would. So tonight, if you feel tired, let that be reason enough. You are allowed to pause, breathe, and sleep. The world will keep spinning without your overthinking. And tomorrow? Tomorrow we rise. But for now, we rest.

DR. GLASS

BY WALLACE CALEB BATES I join Kentucky's education community in congratulating Dr. Jason Glass, the next superintendent of Laguna Beach (California) Unified School District. Dr. Glass has played a pivotal role in my academic, personal, and professional development. He is a passionate champion for those he leads, and I was fortunate to learn from him both as a student and employee at the Kentucky Department of Education. Neatly enough, his teaching career began at Hazard High School, just down the road from my office. His impact on our state continues to make a difference in the lives of Kentucky's students. Dr. Glass, Laguna Beach and California are blessed to have you!

LAST DAY

BY WALLACE CALEB BATES These past two days have been full of learning, laughing, and leaning into leadership with some of the best in the business. The NCMPR Leadership Institute is a reminder that communication is not just about messaging, but about connection. I am grateful to grow alongside the entire group, including fellow Kentuckian Whitney Walker, director of marketing and communications at West Kentucky Community & Technical College. This group amazed me with their care for students, strategy, and storytelling.
