Finished up my M.S.A. program with my Problem of Practice presentation! I am grateful for the many people who helped grow me as a leader. Ready for the next journey! @NELA_NCSU

Listening to author @DerekWBlack talk about his book "School House Burning" and the past, present, and future of public education in the U.S. at @NCASAtweets. #NCASA

Spent the morning at #EggsandIssues23 learning about the state of Public education in NC and action steps we need to take to ensure all students receive a sound education. Following it up @CombsCatchUp - Combs Magent Elementary for a school visit!

State Sen @friendsforbatch⁩ and ⁦#NCTOY Leah Carper @howIteachHS⁩ engaged in the harsh realities of needing to move forward issues of childhood well being in NC. ⁦@theNCForum⁩ #eggsandissues23

Exploring the top education issues facing the profession. #eggsandissues2023 @NELA_NCSU

The real question for this event is: What will the policymakers in the room do? Actually, none of this information is new. #nced #EggsandIssues23

Superintendent Dr. Anthony Jackson @ChathamCoSch speaking the truth. "If you keep hitting the wall, don't blame the wall. We're using pre-pandemic strategies in a post-pandemic world." and they didn't work then! #EggsandIssues23

Union County Supt. Andrew Houlihan says that if NC really wants to make a difference in teacher compensation it should raise the starting salary to $70,000. He says if state want to use merit pay it should be done as a bonus & not as base pay. #nced #ncpol #EggsandIssues23

Thanks to @PrincipalJHop and @MrRobWeldon for hosting our Durham/Wake @NELA_NCSU cohort. I love the intentionality in the building design to celebrate NC, and the school's crest created to honor and enshrine the Lyon Family's Legacy into the school's culture.

Our 9th graders and their families are invited to Hornet Academy Success Night this Monday! See you there! #HillsideElevates @DurhamPublicSch @HillsideHS @NELA_NCSU
