I like to think we can decorate and celebrate all kinds of holidays to expose students to different cultures. When I was in elementary, we made dreidels and sung a Hanukkah song or two. I'm not Jewish but I was interested in learning about my friends' religion and practices.🙂

Today in 1980, we lost an icon. The Beatles’ songs changed the course of pop music and the lives of billions of people. His advocacy for peace and love changed the world. Rest in Peace, John Lennon 🖤✌🏼🕊

Getting to the end of season 4 of Good Girls. So sad there's no more after this. But so glad I found this gem & my new fave 😍 Retta You are gorge! #GoodGirls

CONGRATULATIONS to fourth grade Dual Language teacher Ms. Xochitl Johnson from Rosehill Elementary for being named the 2022-23 Tomball ISD Bilingual Teacher of the Year! #DestinationExcellence

Soooo deserving! I had the pleasure of working alongside Xochitl at Decker Prairie years ago. She's an amazing educator!! 😍 #bilingualTOTY

If teachers could actually indoctrinate students, we would have indoctrinated them years ago to do their assignments. #tiredofbuzzwords #txteachers

Best feeling ever is being a parent and cuddling your newborn. Also, I slept fine. Our daughter started sleeping through the night after a few weeks. Enjoy and know you are blessed. 💖

So proud that Kelli Blankenship Kelli Blankenship was named 2022-2023 CISD Elementary Principal of the Year! Very well deserved!! 👏🎉🎊 Cleveland ISD Southside Elementary School #LeadLAP #theclevelandisdway

😂 love it!

It's ridiculous that we're ashamed of our age. We need to get over it as a society & embrace our years on this earth. I tell them the year I was born. They do math to calculate my age. Lol Just recently a student was curious to know how many days he's been alive. 💖 #mathteacher

Love love love!! #growthmindset #JoyfulLeaders #productiveStruggle

As her mom, I'm still trying to process the news we heard last week. #cancersucks Click to Donate gofund.me/593bf58e

Because these Florida politicians are ignorant. Ignorance is the absence of education. Unfortunately, the same people are banning the literature that could educate them properly. Irony is a bitch.

Amen sister!
