So excited about this partnership! Not as excited about the required ServSafe training I did. I’m lucky to be alive with my kitchen skills was my takeaway! 🤦🏻‍♀️

#TFW when you miss your flight to ParentSquare conference because you got distracted sending an emergency ParentSquare message. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Manifesting finding my suitcase when I land! ✈️ 🧳

Loved hearing the ParentSquare origin story from Anupama (Anu) Vaid, the Founder and President of ParentSquare. Never underestimate the power of a mom to bring order to chaos! 🦸🏾‍♀️ #SquareCamp

Go Crickets! 🦗 Joe Sanfelippo brings the sandwiches and ROCKED #SquareCamp this morning. I laughed, I teared up (the glasses video gets me every time), but I did not stare into anyone’s eyes 2 inches away for 30 seconds for which I’m thankful. 🫶

Present Positive Predictive Great pro tips from Tony Williams on “Parents as Partners” at #SquareCamp!

If you haven’t looked into ParentSquare seriously do so. I was beyond impressed this week and to see the impact they have had on over 9 million students across the country. Phenomenal group of people as well. #squarecamp
