Love Maddi! ❤️

Sobering Sunday. I see this mural outside St. Patrick’s this morning.

Today’s epiphany: Deep learning starts with identity. The pursuit of knowing and growing is really about your “self.”

I have had a hard time trying to come up with words to address what happened in Buffalo and now Uvalde. I am sick to my stomach. Look at these babies. #GunControlNow

To the South Pointe High School class of 2022, you are resilient, kind, empathetic, and full of joy. Go shine bright. I want the world to see that excitement for life that you showed me everyday in A218. You are ready. Go be great ❤️ y’all!

An awesome 2 days hosting Rock Hill Schools International Teachers for Reflection and Renewal w/ Yeider ipracticespanish.com & Jason Allen!! How thoughtful, reflective, and dynamic is this group of educators! @RockHillSchJob #TouchHeartsTEACH

We had an amazing event today! Welcoming our 10 international teachers to Rock Hill Schools with cross-cultural sessions and a housewarming party. I work with a rock⭐️ team! Darlene Del Vecchio Leigh Grimsley Angie Green @RockHillSchJob #TouchHeartsTEACH

Good things are happening in Rock Hill Schools! Our teacher mentors are ready to lead with empathy! #TouchHeartsTEACH

What a cool opportunity for folks in my state.

This week we got personal! South Pointe High School seniors worked on their college essays in Ms. Johnson’s College & Career Readiness class & we introduced memoirs to Ms. Chege’s Saluda Trail STEAM Middle ELA 8 Ss! Great week of writing instruction! ❤️📝

Woah! Teacher friends, add it to your shelves!!

In week 4 of our DEI course on classroom instruction. We are digging deep into teaching for cognitive rigor & creating environments built on care, trust, & empathy. We’re building our partnerships so Ss know we’re right alongside them! [email protected] Zaretta Hammond Rock Hill Schools Professional Learning

Thank you reDesign LLC and SCDE Personalized Learning Team for the opportunity to share my experience working with the competencies. They truly offer the opportunity to build learner agency and efficacy. David Consalvi

Grateful to be at the #LearnFwd22 Conf in Nashville! Today spent w/ @AfeniMills examining identity & transformative practices for Ss and Ts. Shifting starts with the self! Rock Hill Schools Darlene Del Vecchio

When you visit your nephew and embarrass him at school, and his teacher was your 3rd grade teacher! Gotta love working in your hometown!

❤️ This is one of my very favorite classes to teach, and we’re fortunate to have caring educators who are on the equity and cultural awareness journey with us! [email protected] Rock Hill Schools Professional Learning

Some #RockSolid teaching going on in Ms. Shelton’s 6th grade class on this St. Patrick’s Day ☘️ Love the Ss engagement and strategies she brings to the classroom! Do you see her 🎤?! Dutchman Creek Middle School Rock Hill Schools @RockHillSchJob

Wise words.

When they say it takes a village. I love how our Rock Hill educators show up for each other. Take a look at our panel of experienced Ts dropping some knowledge with our 1st and 2nd year Ts. ❤️ That network is #rocksolid Rock Hill Schools @RockHillSchJob #teach
