Taking some much need time to disconnect and recharge before the school year starts! This is much needed! …and this is my current situation 👇🏻#packedTOOmuch #goingfishing #AK

Today we welcomed our new Parkway West Middle staff to the Parkway Schools district! It was great to meet the newest additions to our family! It’s going to be a great year! #parkwayproud

Putting the finishing touches today on our “Opening Day" staff meeting! I'm so excited to share our vision with the staff of Parkway West Middle next week…so here’s a little preview 😉

I’m a die hard STL Cardinal fan but I’m now a Wynton Bernard fan as well. The raw emotion in this video brought a definite tear to my eye.

Spent 3 yrs as Umar’s administrator & I worried (like a parent) as he went to HS if he would find his “place” there. This video warms my heart and brings tears to my eyes. Thank you Lafayette Boys Soccer for making this kid feel special and part of the LHS family!

What a great day of learning, collaboration, and community building! Looking forward to a great year of showing our students, community, and each other that we are FOR them! #WeAreForWest Parkway West Middle

So proud of this kid! Keep chasing your dreams and crush the competition, Marvell!

What an amazing end to a great week w/ the Parkway West Middle staff! We had a scavenger hunt, an ice cream truck, a little competition & ate together as a family. We ended the week w/our newest Longhorns coming in for 6th grade orientation. It’s going to be an amazing year!

Today was a great 1st day of being a Longhorn! So great (& busy) I forgot to take any pictures (fail). I’m so glad I got to spend it w/ the wonderful students & staff of Parkway West Middle while showing them off to our Supt., Deputy Supt, & Board Pres! Looking forward to day 2!

What a week! First time building principal & couldn’t ask for a better place to start this journey! Even in the craziness of the week I found time to observe & leave hand written words of affirmation with many of my teachers. This was my highlight. #theLittleThings #FOR_Teachers

Not only are our students excited to be Parkway West Middle but the family dogs are too! Free dog treats from Coach Lilledahl every morning at parent drop off! Might be one of the best parts of my day 🐶🦴😁 Parkway Schools #community

Have any of my education friends read this book? Or do you have a suggestion? I’m looking for my next “inspiration” 😀📖💡

Glad to be part of history tonight! St. Louis Cardinals

I think I found my replacement today. Love celebrating #Homecoming2022 week at West High w/ Swap Day today. Teachers dress like students and students dress like teachers :)

What a great night at our Food Truck Friday tonight! It’s all about community here at West Middle. Go Longhorns! #ForOurCommunity Parkway West Middle Parkway Superintendent

Another great family & community event Parkway West Middle tonight! Sixth grade family event to bond as Longhorns while also supporting our Parkway food pantry! I'm so proud to be a Longhorn! #ForOurCommunity #ForEachOther

This might have been the toughest job I’ve had all school year. Taste testing for 7th grade FACS! #cookies

When snow is in the forecast, every educator becomes an expert weatherperson…myself included! #snowday #hopeful
