It’s Math Success Wednesday! Thanks to Shannon Parvankin EVERYONE is teaching and learning math. 🤓 #LevelUp #mathgoals West Orient Middle School Gresham-Barlow SD

#SportsmanshipInAction... Kindergartners and 1st graders clapped, cheered, and then hollered their peers on as they crossed the finish line at recess. ☺️ 😃 🙃 #ThatsWhatWeDoAtEastGresham #WhyEastGresham #InspireEmpowerTHRIVE

When I greet students at the door each morning I encourage them to share a joke with me. It’s a great way not only to start our day with lots of laughter, but an excellent way to manipulate words, language, and multiple meanings. 😉💜👍🏼#WhyEastGresham #InspireEmpowerTHRIVE

With so many issues needing your attention, how do you stay motivated to teach? #Sketchnote via @sylviaduckworth

Thank you to our counselors for another successful Food Drive. Mr. Hayden did his TikTok dance. Thank you to our community for your donations! #grmstbirds #grmsrocks #teamgbsd #hewearsatietobed

It will never get old seeing my Highland Elementary School students quoted and their collective artwork featured in Learning for Justice. Introducing Maya Angelou, her resilience & brilliance, and her poem “Still I Rise” to my students was an honor. Teach Black excellence all year.

We are here to serve teachers

16 years admin, and here's the hardest part: the thing I got into leadership to do (be in classrooms, coach teachers, notice great instruction) was the thing I had the least time for. Every principal I know feels this. Most just don't talk about it. tandem-education.com/blog/hidden-we…
