Earlier this week, I was honored to welcome @MoGreenNCDPI, along with leaders from @ncpublicschools & @NCgoldenLEAF to @leecoschoolsnc. Great opportunity to showcase the incredible work happening in our public schools & to highlight the dedication of students, staff & leaders.

Such a great opportunity today to share our five-year strategic plan & the work underway @leecoschoolsnc. When you build a team, you want the very best—and people smarter than you—and that has certainly happened here! Blessed to work alongside this team. #ThriveinLee

There is more work to be done but feeling incredibly proud of @leecoschoolsnc improved results! But always remember—students and teachers are more than just test scores. Their growth, passion, resilience and dedication define our success. Let’s keep supporting and thriving!

We hope all students and staff are enjoying their day off as we celebrate the hard work that makes this country great. From all of us at Lee County Schools - Happy Labor Day!

Preparing for a @NELA_NCSU seminar I’ve taught the last 10 or so years. Need some new “stuff”. Decided to go to my small Twitter universe for help. In ONE word, what is Leadership? Former students- weigh in.

This morning, I had the pleasure of riding Bus 79 with Ms. Tammy to pick up Tramway Elementary students on their first day. Honored to greet them at their home & walk with them into the building as they start a new year full of excitement & opportunity in @leecoschoolsnc.

Grateful for the hard work of my team and our supportive board for making free meals a reality for all students in ⁦@leecoschoolsnc⁩. Together, we're ensuring no child goes hungry. lee.k12.nc.us/article/164905…
