Why is Metro Schools New Teacher Launch so important? We’re starting our time making connections - teachers are seated with their schools and cluster pathways so we are building relationships K-12 that will benefit our students for years to come! #MNPSntl #WelcometoMNPS #MNPSPLG

It was such a privilege to listen to these students talk about the impact of this opportunity today. One said: “They told me to come in here and do my thing. They gave me freedom… saying that was another way of saying I believe in you.” #MNPSproud, as an employee & a parent!

Our song "Every Student Known" got its radio premiere on @92Q today! A day after the release, students & music educators who wrote & recorded it joined Director of Schools Dr. Adrienne Battle at the station's remote broadcast in Antioch. Everyone was feeling the joy that flows

A powerful shift in data use: 💬 From “What does the data tell me?”➡️to “What relationships between datasets can we observe?” When we connect the dots, we unlock insight and action. What data mindset shift is your team embracing this year? #EdLeadership #DataToAction #ROI

I spy Glenna Wyatt and the amazing Sun Blaze Elementary School team!

Is your district ready for ROI analysis? 3 signs: Strategy Clarity – You’ve set clear goals. Program Saturation – You’ve made big investments. Leadership Curiosity – You’re asking impact-focused questions. Let’s move from spending to impact. #EdTech #K12Leadership #DataDriven

Listening to 20VC Fund w/ Kim Graves really opened my eyes! 💡 Instead of defending price, she asks: Why do you think it’s expensive? As a former instructional coach, that inquiry-based approach clicked. Lesson: Skills from one role can transform your next. #Sales #EdLeadership

Week 2 of school is when a little boost is needed, especially special ed teams, like the amazing staff at Simon Springs who support my daughter. If you see the perfect mascot bag, fill it with treats & practical goodies. Small gestures matter. ❤️ #ThankATeacher #SpecialEducation

Happy #NationalRelaxationDay! 🧘‍♀️ In edtech, calm isn’t a luxury—it’s fuel. Home: midday meditation to reset. Travel: yoga mat for morning flow (unless it’s a 5am flight ✈️). Today’s plan? Coffee + podcast between flights. How are you recharging? #MindfulLeadership #EdTechLife
