Yes! Luv the babies!

Look ma, no GLOVES!!!!

Everywhere, home, schools, offices, subways, gyms, on the road. Don't have to be invasive to just be kind: acknowledge others, smile, share, wait, ask, help, move out of the way, say thank you...

Please contrast this with Linda McMahon's comment today praising kids in headphones learning from a computer for hours.

My elementary school principal knew everyone’s name and occasionally walked through the neighborhood to check on the students who didn’t go to class regularly!

This is respect

What a role model too for not only the kids but the teachers 💓💓💓

Thx our kids need more positive people

I'm glad it wasn't just me

So simple to be kind, this is beautiful ❤️

Last year, on the last day of school, when many of my students said they didn’t want school to be over and that they were going to miss me…

Magic moments. Could be a good President! 😉 Happier Country with positivity outperforming hurt, division and profiteering.

Note shock gloves needed.

In a time when some people consider a questioning tap on the shoulder an affront, this is refreshing.

💯

How to be a human ❤️‍🔥

I love a good principal. This is what school should be. I'm happy just with this. Children go to school to learn a great education and have a great principal and teachers to teach them. This is what it's all about 🥰🫶🏼🤩😊

Good for him. For so many (including me some years) school was a prison that held me down, rather than opening any doors or windows.

I had a 5th grade teacher like that 60 years ago. I have never forgotten him.

Yes, kids need more positive teachers like this in their lives teachers who really enjoy what they are doing...

That's an A-1 superstar dude.

He knows how to connect with kids. They will never forget him and his positive impact. They know he cares which is so important when getting kids to want to learn.

I still remember my fifth grade teacher who hugged us every single day before we left school. 🩷

We can all be this way. Every day. People really appreciate a kind word and a smile now, more than ever. We’re all under so much stress and anxiety 😥

WAY more of this - and guess what, communities across the country are doing this just that. WE THE PEOPLE make happy happen daily - Pay attention and just god damn hug someone. VOTE!

🎯

Do people like this exist? More of them please. Kids don't think they care. I hear that all too often.😔

I bet HE doesn't wear shock gloves at school!

Same for 3200 here. He knew us all but he didn’t touch us like that. It was rare. And now it’s forbidden up here.

He sounds like a good one. How lucky you are to have such great memories. 💕 My wish for the new school year is that all students are lucky enough to have a positive fun influence like your dad and this guy in their school life

Thank you. He was.

💞💞💞💞

He is AWESOME!!

Treating kids as if they’re people

It's amazing how a simple (but enthusiastic) "Good Morning!" (or really any acknowledgement) can change a kids entire day.

Beautiful to see. I believe it goes on in most schools, where our dedicated educators do marvelous things, every day, for not enough pay. Here in NC, the principals took a pay cut, in the first budget passed in 2 years by scumbag GOP. All tutors were fired. GOP refuses to raise tax, for anything.

The Root of this Entire Problem is the Decades of War the GOP has carried out on Education .. They keep trying to end Public Schools ..

He is LIVING his passion. More More More!!!

❤️

If only this were the prevailing attitude!

Jeez my principal gave the strap.

It starts with a kindness and respect. Favorite video of the day.

There is a lot of good in this country. You just have to know where to look.

Some people teach because they really want to teach. Others teach because they have a degree and they don't know what else to do with it.

Be like Zac

This is where the Republican will come out to call him woke

Good vibrations 😊😊😊

KIDs keep people like him in mind if they come from a broken home, parents who are crazy, or drunk/drug addict. They will remember that. They take whatever positive thats been given, and it sets a bar for them to be sorta like that.🥹👏🏼

I remember that. It’s turned into a theory called servant leadership which is also very effective.

God,think how much better this country could be with more people like this!

My Jr. High Principle swaggered the halls with attitude to make sure all the kids were compliant.

Trump thinks this is woke….🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

That’s real! Shalom

My kids had two principals with this kind of positive spirit and genuine love for education and kids when we lived in Rochester, MN. The difference between principals who set a fear-based/ punitive tone and growth-mindset/ positive tone is amazing

I taught high school for 28 years. Every single day, those students brought me joy. Don’t teach if you can’t love.

I’m fighting a couple tears… :-) Needed to see this right now Thanks! 🙏🏽💞

My youngest son had a grade school principal like him back in Nutley NJ. His name was Mr. Walker, he seemed to know all of the kids by name, he'd hi five them in the halls, even showed up at many of their sporting events to cheer for them. He was an amazing, wonderful person who kids/parents loved!

Nice but it's more important what is happening in the classroom. Show snippets of that!!!

Love it!!

Yes, educators also while teaching have to make things fun for kids, entertain them or they will be very bored and they won't care about learning.

I love this so much

💕❤️❤️❤️

Had a principal like that. I ran my class w/ positivity. Rarely sent a kid to the principal for discipline bc I thought it rested with me. When I did they needed to know it was serious (bullying, violence, etc.) But they'd come out his "mate." They loved him but he was useless. Need to be both.

LOve this!😍

Speaks to the times we’re living through right now that watching that made me well up. There’s such a decline in just simply being nice and caring about each other.

👍😊

Yes !!! Lead,support,encourage . Make em laugh, engage and smile while it's happening. Great guy .

Cute, but some parents …

When I was younger an educator got fired for hugging a student. This guy should have more restraint. We have learned that lots of people like to abuse children here in the USA and while this video is a positive my mind went to suspicion immediately.

We also have a great principal whom the kids love. This is so needed.

I had a 7th grade homeroom/ social studies teacher like that l will never forget her Ms.Johnson she was a typical hippy right from 60's ..so postive and vibrant. She had a big impact on our school life..she made it fun

For all the people who are out there saying the bless them bullshit. Give the schools the supplies they need. Give the schools the support they need. Schools are struggling like crazy. Bless them does nothing for the problems that schools are facing. Put your money where your mouths are.

I watched the Principal get down on the floor next to a crying autistic child. He sat there and talked to the child until the boy calmed down. That was nice to see.

This is the kind of school I attended. Love public schools and public education. End charter schools and vouchers.

I love this! Some school districts forbid touching of any kind between staff and students. I have a friend who works in a public school with kids who have special needs. At the bus stop a student hugged her. Not thinking, my friend bent down & kissed the top of her head. She was suspended.

For many of these young kids he is likely one of the few positive male role models in their lives!

Excellent. All my school principals were hard asses.

I had a teacher like this named Mr. Clausen. He would give me noogies and sometimes "detention" just because he knew I had a hard time at home. He'd just let me read comics and books. He died of cancer, one of the best teachers I ever had. We pranked each other all the time.

Going Viral for just being a kind human being…man…I think we’re cooked ya’ll😂

👍😃🙌🙌

My daughter's elementary school principal greeted each student with a big hug. Teachers rule ❤️

That's a man who loves his job

I had the privilege of working for a woman principal who was just like this. Those were the best years of my career. She’d been an LSU cheerleader, and brought that delightful personality into everything she did. Cathy Homer was an amazing boss.

Look at that. People treating each other with dignity, respect, and fun. I love it! ✊🏽🖤🌈🏳️‍⚧️

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💙💙💙💙💙♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

That made me smile. Something I need to do more of these days.....

At every school I attended I never saw the principal or assistant principal walking the halls unless someone was in trouble. I’m glad to see this man changing the dynamics of that.

Not all heroes wear capes....this man is a hero to all of these kids!!!

Here's the deal: that school is K12...or maybe k-6 Watch him modify greetings for age, level and personality...& older students respond Watch him remember specialized greetings for certain kids I bet you he reaches harder to reach kids in different ways He’s earned their respect That's gold

Yep, my son had one of those, too. He could always tell when a kid was having a bad day and did everything in his power to help that child turn it around, just by talking to them. ❤️

That is awesome!!!

1000% agree. i almost forgot what this looks like on social media. thanks for posting.

What a cool dude! 😎 As it should be!

I needed to see this today. Tyty

Good principal= Good school 🏫

To Mr. and Mrs. Magnani, Thank you for being the this guy 45 years ago. You made high school a safe place for so many of us!

I'll bet he also knows each kid by at least their family name!

It’s the way everyone could be like this if they wanted to ppl choose to be assholes it’s weird it’s so much more helpful to your own happiness. I often wonder about guys like Musk and Bezos and all other ppl of money influence and power why they choose to be assholes when they could do so much good

lol omg gross

I know a principal like this. ❤️

Steve Hartman story on the high school freshmen who have to give their parents on a hug on the first day of high school: www.cbsnews.com/video/kiss-y...

I love this. It will mean so much to those children 😇🥰 Big thanks Christopher 😊

Great man. Great job. Great man.

That’s awesome

I’m going to guess that Mr Bauermaster is not a Republican.

I love seeing the connection he’s making w/ students. Too many in admin stay behind their desks & only interact when it’s a disciplinary issue. Get out in the halls & make a positive impact …it could completely turn around a child’s day for the better!

The only principal I remember was Mr. Nestor, who was the principal when I was in 3rd/4th grades. He also taught us gym and it was lots of fun. He was very engaging with all the kids. Couldn't tell you who any of the rest were.

💯❤️😍 I would be so happy if my children were going there, teaching the kids kindness and joy and positive energy is so much better than hate and how to be a bully.

I guarantee you this man is a Democrat!! Much love Mr. Bauermaster! 😍😍😍😍😍😍

Obviously you’ve not worked with inner city youth but thanks for playing.

I am a teacher. My philosophy about education is this: there is not one single thing I can teach my students that they cannot learn on that rectangular computer they carry with them everywhere they go. Not one! The only thing “I” can do is make learning fun. Fun! Fun! Fun!

This is such an easy thing to do, but in my 35 years teaching, I only saw this kind of connection between administrators and students once. She was an assistant principal who knew every child’s name and greeted them at the school’s entrance every morning.

He’s a wealthy man ❤️

Not just positivity, but making the students feel seen. 🥹

Hospitals and schools are having a rough time in this climate. Please, more of this.

I was a teacher in a school with a principal just like this man. It’s amazing how the atmosphere is so positive with someone like this at the helm.

Indeed. Their critiques didn't diminish or discourage but spurred us to do better. We felt as if we were part of something better. It's likely why I did so well in the Army and, subsequently, in grad school.
