What amazing opportunities the staff in West Aurora 129 World Languages provides our students with!

I’m always a proud Spartan, but today I’m a beaming, proud Spartan Mom! Love to see our kids getting it done in and out of the classroom! I’m proud of you John “Jack” Turner! 🖤💛🖤💛

Love, love, LOVE this Sarah Frankiewicz! 😉☺️

I have had the pleasure of working for some of the very best Sycamore High School in Sycamore Community School District 427 and now have the privilege of working with the equally good APs in West Aurora School District 129. Thank you to each of you for making me a better educator and our schools better for staff and students!

Today’s the day! Today we are once again hosting the Mikva Challenge Project Soapbox competition! Welcome back students from Plainfield East High School, West Aurora High School , and East Aurora 131! Looking forward to a day filled with great student speeches! #DemocracyMatters #StudentVoice

What a great day w/ the 8th grade Jewel Jaguars at CantignyPark!

Love seeing all of these All Americans from Illinois Illinois Matwomen! 💪🏼🥇#GirlsGettingItDone #GrappleLikeAGirl

Some days, it really is this simple. Picture being happy, believe in yourself, and dream big. You got this!

I’m excited to share that I’ve joined District 300 as the Director of Science and Social Science! Looking forward to working with such a dedicated team to inspire and support our students. #Education #Leadership #District300

Got to spend some time this week at elementary schools welcoming and dismissing students and at Hampshire HS helping to distribute devices. How lucky am I to get to do things like this everyday?! I’ll always love being a teacher.

And yet sadly, they’re so underutilized today. 😔 I almost burst into tears not long ago when in a meeting someone said, “Our goal is to make sure EVERY student in this district has a library card.” I’ve found my home. ❤️ 📚 🏫

It’s been a heck of a week at our house with the first day of school and the first Friday on the field since last year! This Syco mama is ready for some Spartan football! 🖤🏈💛

We Huskies are all a little more proud today! Way to get it done in their house! ❤️🤍🖤 #TheHardWay🦴 #NoLuckOfTheIrishToday

It’s a good day to be a Huskie! #GoHuskies #TheHardWay #NIUAlum

That’s a million dollar smile right there! What an amazing, uplifting thing to cross my feed at the end of the week. May the owner of that smile feel this kind of happiness and pride often as he continues his scholarly journey.

Love this idea!

This. This sums it up. This gives me hope. Today, we begin again.
