Proud to share out our "Virtual Open House" newsletter. We bloom where we are planted and we count the roses, not the thorns in The Field of Dreams. #stallionstrong smore.com/3rex0-southfie…

We truly have the best principal! Our entire staff has been in overdrive preparing for Tuesday's virtual opening. Yet, she (Janice Sharpe) stayed up all night cooking for her staff of 110+ as a token of her appreciation. #stallionstrong #vipproud #cultureandclimatematters

Southfield, the field of dreams with a great idea! Put the times of the class on the schedule! Way to go Dr Laney and Mrs Amaris Smith! #BibbVIProud

As an Assistant Principal, I am fully vested in my roles as an instructional and servant leader. You have to make time to support teachers' learning and growth, and get in the trenches with them. We are better together in The Field of Dreams! Tanzy Kilcrease, Ed. D. Myrja Fuller

Feedback is a growth conversation that is continuous and built on mutual respect, trust, honesty, and guided support. #bcsdnewleaders

In the Field of Dreams, attendance matters! When you're late, you miss something great... like watching the Assistant Principals hop down the bunny trail. We love what we do and we love who we serve! Bibb County Schools Southfield Elementary facebook.com/watch/?v=19282…

Always a great day when you learn something new, network and build collegial relationships, and meet an author! Time well invested at the Assistant Principals Consortium with @MGRESAPL. Bibb County Schools Southfield Elementary #GameOn #VIP #LeadHerShip

This report has sparked some rich discourse in my family. I have really enjoyed reflecting on the Framework for Action. Hoping to see my district Bibb County Schools consider some of the recommendations to address teacher (and leader) burnout.

Our Assistant Principal, Dr. Laney is on a mission to elevate her passion, purpose, and practice at the ASCD Conference in Denver! Great leaders never stop learning, growing, or sharing. #Built4Bibb #UpUpandAway #ZoneStrong #ASCD23 Bibb County Schools Shavone Laney, Ed.D.

"Love first, teach second. Love first, lead second. Love and empathy will change people more than data and information." Thank you, Brandon Fleming! These titles mean nothing if love is not at the helm. #ASCD23 #Built4Bibb #ZoneStrong #undoingmiseducation Bibb County Schools Brandon P. Fleming

What a pleasure to meet the legendary Principal Kafele today in Denver! For the last 3 years, I have tuned into his virtual leadership academy and I'm a better leader because of his nuggets! #ASCD2023 Bibb County Schools Southfield Elementary Principal Kafele

We have been friends for over 17 years! She's not only my soror, but she's my forever mentor. I'm so proud of how she continues to blaze trails. It was awesome to attend her session as she and her team shared their story of success! Love you Chendra Dupree, Ed.D.! #ASCD2023

I'm a daily work in progress. I'm thankful for self-awareness and intellectual humility. What a PHENOMENAL keynote session with Ryan Leak at the Model Schools Conference. Can't wait to read his book and I purchased a second to pave the way for another. Take a chance! #MSC2023

Complaining will never do for your life what gratefulness can!

When school & district leaders synergize to discuss ideas to help our students SHOW UP, it's a beautiful thing! Kudos Grooms Director of Athletics, CMAA for your willingness to consider Elementary Sports. Great think tank today! #Built4Bibb Bibb County Schools Bibb Athletics Southfield Elementary R.
