Be grateful for what IS working, the small victories, the things that ARE improving. Be grateful in advance for what is already yours... Peace, joy, love, faith, hope. Focus your energy on the good things in your life and work. Your gratitude WILL multiply your efforts.

Last night our PTA kicked off our 2nd Byram’s Got Talent & it was a huge success, standing room only! Congrats to the students who performed last night, you made it a great show for everyone! Thank you to all the parents and teachers who helped organize this event. #ByramPride

#ThoughtForTheDay Academics are important. The quality of work is important. Effort is important. But so is feeling connected, confident, capable & cared about. Patience & keeping things in perspective helps too. Teaching can be difficult some days but so can learning. #Culturize

Today we had educators come from Holland to visit us and learn about the experiences we provide for our students here at Byram. Looking forward to building connections with educators from across the Atlantic. #ByramPride #NJed #MSchat

After touring DC with our 8th graders I am reminded of this quote and how promising I feel the future looks after spending three days with these amazing students. #ByramPride #Bfc530 #njamle #njed #edtherapy

I know that I don't have all the answers...but am glad I'm surrounded by people that can help me find them! #HiveSummit #byrampride

It was great to be back with the people who do whatever it takes to help our students learn and improve. So many of our teachers have already made our walls and halls more welcoming already. #ByramPride

6th grade has arrived at Frost Valley safely and are ready to begin their adventure! #byrampride

I learned a lot from Ms. Stranz and the Ss in her per. 4/5 block! Love the culture of writing and real world connections to science, physics, bio & chem...as well as what a “philjoe” is! If you don’t know...ask one of the students! Great work everyone! Byram Schools #byrampride

When I walk out of a meeting and see this makes me thankful for our awesome mass media program and hilarious 7th graders! Can’t wait to see what they produce! Thanks for the laugh guys! Jimmy Clayton #byrampride Byram Schools

I'm excited to attend Jon Gordon's free LEAD POSITIVE CONFERENCE online on 11/18 with P.J. Fleck, Kevin Carroll, Erwin McManus and other top leaders. Join me and sign up for free now at leadpositiveconference.com @jongordon11

3 positives for today: 1. We have amazing Ts that continue to model resiliency in the face of adversity! 2. Ss advocating to get extra help! 3. Met with 2 new Ss to welcome them to the district! 2021 is looking better already! John Fritzky what are yours?!? #byrampride

In addition to a proclamation signed by Governor Phil Murphy, the NJ State Board of Education passed a ceremonial resolution designating March 26th as #SELDay. We will be celebrating SEL all month & want to know some of your favorite ways to reinforce SEL in & out of the classroom!

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! Our students, parents, and administrators are blessed to be able to have the talented teachers of Byram!

Loved seeing students being introduced to perception in Mrs. Ward’s class today! Great precursor of what’s to come! #byrampride

Can’t wait!!! #byrampride

Amen! I am fortunate to have so many GREAT individuals who work in the Byram School District.
