Year 23 and I'm still excited to dive into my first lesson! 🎉 Can't wait to inspire and engage my students. #TeachingJourney #FirstLesson #Education

This past Saturday, we met with our U2L Liaisons to prepare for the 2024-2025 school year! 🎉 Our incredible and dedicated volunteers are ready to build strong relationships with our #DallasISD elementary schools, support educators, and help students reach their academic goals.

The Best of the best!! 🎉

Attendance really does matter @ RCB!Missing school leads to gaps in learning. Chronic absenteeism is strongly linked to lower test scores, poor grades, and higher failure rates. Studies show that students who are frequently absent score lower on reading and math assessments.

Wow🎉 My incredible students have been spotted on DISD's social media platforms! 😱To say I’m bursting with pride is an understatement! ✨ These future leaders are shining, and I'm honored to be a part of their journey. 🌟🔥 Keep your eyes on them- this is only the beginning! 💫

So proud of my 3rd graders today! They worked together to tackle problems involving adding and subtracting time. Watching them collaborate and support each other made my teacher heart so happy! #TeamworkMakesTimeWork ⏰💡 R.C. Burleson Elementary School M. Hammonds ACE Dallas ISD
