Be kind. It's not always easy, but it's always important.

We will always remember everyone we lost on 9/11, thank the first responders who keep us safe, and honor all who defend our country and the ideals that bind us together. There's nothing our resilience and resolve can’t overcome, and no act of terror can ever change who we are.

Our class is having lots of fun with our math bins!! #differentiation #welovemanipulatives Assistant Principal at Poolesville Elementary

Sometimes the best teaching adjustments are made on the fly so every student can fully access and have success in PE!Playing soccer minefield with 1sr graders! Thanks Mike Graham for the idea and Brynn Nyberg #APE #physed

🐠 We made 🦗 our own 🐌ecosystems 🌱...what did YOU do today?? @BlakleyDES Assistant Principal at Poolesville Elementary #4thgraderocks

One of many Zoom meetings with Team SCB/LFI!! #ournewnormal #TogetherWeCan

Schools, remember this is not the new normal. This is just surviving a crisis. You don’t build a new home in a storm, you weather the storm and then regroup once it’s over.

Teachers, do what you can and know it’s enough. You’re not in competition with anyone else. Parents do what you can and know it’s enough. You’re not in competition with anyone else either.

Since we weren’t all able to make a snowman yesterday...we made one in class! My friends worked hard to follow directions and had fun talking about their snowmen when they were finished.

My kiddos had a lot of fun seeing our pictures with masks! We practiced wearing our masks during morning meeting too. Spencer Delisle @DamascusES_AP
