Not ALL students have access to paid tutors, private speech therapiats, health care, or parents who can stay home to support with remote learning!!!! Please keep our most vulnerable students in the forefront of everything we do and advocate for.

First day of PreK for Toussaint L’Ouverture School and principal Florentine Ulysse and staff have everything in place to make this transition fun and seamless. Clearly marked signage and countless sanitizing stations available. Our scholars were happy to partake in their morning movement. District 17

Totally inspired by the level of engagement I witnessed between students at home and those within the classroom simultaneously. MS353 teachers are streaming live and all students are actively participating and collaborating. Thank you Tricia Delauney for your leadership.

Nothing is more inspiring than being a thought partner with young minds around texts their reading and the connections they make with current events . Thank you Dr. Michelle Penn for inviting me to HS-GC to partake in break out groups with your students. Remote yet remarkable. District 17

Amazing and beautiful display of love and appreciate for the scholars of PS 705 . Each student was greeted with a red carpet and a personal selfie to remember and acknowledge this day!

Kindness is the driving force in District 17 and P.S. 191 always places that at the forefront of all they do! Scholars were greeted with a red carpet and cheers of appreciation from the staff to greet them as they kick off the beginning of an amazing year! #Homecoming2021

Our Pre-K teachers PS 138 Brooklyn are full of optimism, enthusiasm and excitement as they welcome their new scholars this school year! We are off to an amazing start! Only way from here is UP! #Homecoming2021 Shenean Lindsay District 17

Beautiful visit Fosterlaurie397 , health and safety protocols are infused with kindness and teachers are embedding SEL multiple times a day before instruction. The building looked and felt welcoming and warm . Thank you Principal Monteau and AP Pena! District 17 Shenean Lindsay

Totally inspired by the school pride displayed at PS161 THE CROWN . Principal Johnson and AP Williams have transformed their school community into a wonderful oasis of learning. My favorite was the Pre-K wing which transported me into a safari. All students engaged, learning and smiling.

Leadership is the most impactful when connection is built in a meaningful way with the ones you serve. Completely inspired by the “human touch” that is embedded in every aspect of the learning at New Heights MS . Reset Rooms, pantries , GEM …all in the name of SEL and connection.
