Curriculum is important but the focus of PLC’s & department meetings needs to be how we are teaching and not what we are teaching. We all need to celebrate successes & how we are engaging kids. How over what. #wcpsmd #edchat

I wish everyone who said that educators are taking it easy right now spent a day doing what we do- taking it easy for us is 15 hour days managing multiple students, platforms and answering emails so no one complains- oh sorry they complain anyway-all educators I applaud you!
