It felt SO good to be back at Paramount Theatre tonight! We were there for the very last show before the world shut down, (😭) and we were thrilled to come back to safely see an AMAZING show! Bravo to the cast of Kinky Boots! Thank you for letting your love shine on all of us.

Excited for some summer professional learning to hone my Apple coaching skills! Day 1 of #AppleLearningCoach begins now! :)

Day 2 of our #applelearningcoach seminar is complete! It was so great to meet so many people from around the country. I learned a lot and I'm looking forward to staying in touch!

One of my big summer goals is officially complete! Can’t wait to share what I learned with my team and my teachers! Thanks #AppleLearningCoach team for a great opportunity :)

Celebrating almost making it through the first full week of school at the Kane County Cougars game! #FridayEve #ballparkskies

It makes me sad when a teacher assistant says “I’m just a para” when they introduce themselves to me…we CANNOT do our jobs without support staff. They are the backbones of our schools. No one is “just” anything on your staff. Make sure your support staff feel encouraged & loved.

No, thank YOU Thomas C. Murray for an amazing keynote this morning! Thank you for your inspiration, your vulnerability, and your passion. What a great way to kick off our Power of Us day. West Aurora PD #129learns
