Only 2 weeks and 6 more assignments to go! #theendisnear #pushthrough

Grateful to work with admin who invests in our students’ learning, and plays along when we use them as instructional tools lol

Good leaders do things right, but highly effective leaders do the right thing. Cancelling state tests is an example of doing the right thing.

A break from freaking out about the Coronavirus to be happy about this! #4moredays

I am heartbroken by this news...

2,437 meals served today (March 24) to our Frederick County Public Schools - Virginia students. Tremendous outreach & caring gesture demonstrated by our bus drivers & Nutrition Services team members. #INSPIRE2025 #FCPSinpires

#IMPORTANTUPDATE: The U.S. Department of Education has given Virginia permission to cancel federally mandated Standards of Learning tests during the 2019-2020 school year following the commonwealth’s waiver application: ow.ly/NOOR50z0fkH

Besides teachers pouring out so much now, principals are too. Principals are always in tough spot. They have no control over pay or many mandates such as common core, state teacher evals etc. The problems & unrealistic mandates come from above. So check in on your admin too.

Back to school night will have a whole new meaning and perspective this fall! Every parent/guardian in America will be there! 😃

Just here patiently waiting for my diploma! #Graduation2020

It’s a happy day indeed! #Graduation2020

What’s happening across the US, shows the importance of our equity focus. The purpose of our Frederick County Public Schools - Virginia equity work is to increase awareness of inequities, promote civility, address areas requiring change, and to create structures that accelerate opportunities for all.

We either affect those around us or we infect those around us. Never underestimate your influence.

If we don’t focus on empathy and relationships, any return to school plan is a failure.

God can use this interruption of your story as an invitation to an even greater story. Trust Him.

We teach students before curriculum. We reach souls before standards. We teach character before content. In that order or its not really teaching at all #HipHopEd #GoodTroubleEdu

Teaching looks a bit different this year, but I am so so happy to be with kids again!

The worst part of my day was finding out my basement flooded last night. The best part of my day was when my kids found out I was having a tough day, they all showed me their pets in our class meeting to cheer me up. It worked like a charm!
