Had to share these picture of my babies who are growing up faster than my heart can keep up....oh time take it easy on me. ❤

Went to Sam’s Club this morning, door greeter asked if I was a community hero, a first responder. I said no, I'm a teacher. She kindly said I'd have to wait till 10:00 to come in. I thought it was thoughtful they were allowing early access for those professionals. (1/2)

(2/2) My daughter who was with me looked up and said "But Mom I think teachers are heroes too" I smiled and said "Teachers are heroes sis, we just like to keep our super powers a secret."

A1: 21st Cent Curriculum shoots for developing global citizenship in Ss, how can we expect our students to be global citizens w/o understanding what it means to be community minded first? Positive community relationships are key to authentic learning opportunities. #ksedchat

A2: Promoting the school should be the responsibility of all educators and staff, but a community outreach group/committee of stakeholders from the school and community including Ss is important #ksedchat

A3: IMO building relationships with students & families. Real, authentic relationships. Attending student events outside of school, volunteering with community organizations & bringing sm business owners to meet with students keep educators community minded. #ksedchat

A4: I have learned that strong relationships w/ students & families give the best insight to the needs of the community. Networking with other experienced educators in my school and pln help me identify potential roadblocks. #ksedchat

A5: IMO the amazing group of faculty that provides students with opportunities to find their "tribes", having after/during/before school groups, clubs, activities and sports. Students need avenues to celebrate their similarities with one another. #ksedchat
