University of the Cumberlands pitching pathway for licensed teachers to add certifications to résumés; EPSB-approved route takes less time than a typical certification, features online flexibility and at a price among the lowest in the state news.yahoo.com/cumberlands-ad…

Yesterday was our first trip of the year to Barnes and Noble! Our seniors enjoyed their time looking at books, sipping a Starbucks drink, and reading! We ❤️ books and the grant that makes this possible in Allen County Schools!!! 📚

Now that school's settling in, remember there are NO: SPED kids 504 kids EIP kids RTI kids Tier kids Low kids Those kids This kid or ______ kids. They are ALL kids who can learn high levels. Treat them that way. The second you slap a label on them, you treat them otherwise.

Scaffolds are meant to be TEMPORARY. Otherwise, we'd still be looking at the Statue of Liberty like this... It's no different for learning. Scaffolds were meant to be used & then eventually taken down.

#UKGrad 💙🤍 He graduated in three years with honors and a 4.0! I love this kid!

What happens in class if you get rid of the lecture? When these teachers devised a self-paced #BlendedLearning model, they saw students’ anxiety levels drop—and commitment rise. 🙌

Love this team and their passion for helping kids! ❤️💙

It’s always a pleasure to hear Buddy Berry, especially when you get to hear him in your own district!

Best Opening Day in 28 years! When I say we have the BEST coaches, central office staff, mental health therapists, virtual coordinator, school psychs, and team, I am not kidding! They work tirelessly for our staff, students, and families every single day, and they are SO FUN! 🤩

I couldn’t have said this better! ❤️

Special thanks to our #IALGrant and #UnitedWaySOKY for making this possible! Our Kindergarten students have had a successful first two days of school because of Camp Stepping Stone!

Best quote of the day, maybe the year- “The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.” I think about this as educators often look for the magic bullet. It’s work. That’s the magic. It’s doing whatever it takes to make it happen. That’s work. And, it’s worth it.

“Teach like it’s your kid in the front row.” When I became a parent it completely changed my views on teaching my students. Every interaction, every lesson, every day feels different. Everything becomes more meaningful ❤️

Don’t buy Dooney & Bourke! 🛑 Mom’s Mother’s Day bag didn’t last 3 wks, strap broke. No customer service after 30 days. They won’t even exchange it. Best part is their tagline: Timeless Style. Exceptional Craftsmanship. Unconditional Guarantee. I would say is absolutely false. 😂

This is awesome! Questions from your 6th grade self… ❤️

#KyNC is a game-changer for KY students, teachers, and leaders!

Love this quote! ❤️ #KyNC
