End of the year gifts for our kiddos! Once you’re in 2 Diamond Head, you will always be Familia! ❤️🖤@rosaberry24

@MrsR_Villanueva That’s awesome!! Good for you!!

Birthday run! Ran 13.1 miles for my daughter. Earned her a Team Godzilla medal. Just wanna show my girls anything is possible. Just do it!

A spring of remote learning in 2020 due to the unknown of the pandemic gave way to a summer of extensive study and preparation for dual in-person and remote curriculums in the fall.​ bizjournals.com/pacific/news/2…

@SmartBShari Thank YOU @SmartBShari for everything you do to for your students! As a colleague and parent, I know first hand the impact you have made on those who are blessed to have you!!

That’s what we’ve been saying! Go P.E. Teachers!

Please watch! We'd be so grateful--My kids need an audience! So this is what we came up with for the marching band and dance team instead of a field show this year. Bonus: because of this format, we got to include musical theatre students too! youtu.be/8ZuSSxcmpVc

@mrfalk1 I especially LOVE the quote of the day! ❤️

Unprompted, my home room has taken to setting goals of kindness and self affirmation. Feeling proud and privileged to walk beside you until 2024. #midpacific #owlstrong

@mcdonald_kecia I was completely blown away!!

@kaweihi LOL!! I missed the gift tag when I saw you!! Too funny!!

This family knows how to dress up for 🎄 spirit week ! (PS: Note the gift tag on my sweater and roll your eyes.)

The annual K-12 Christmas Chapel was held this morning in St. Alban's Chapel, with most of the campus joining in via Zoom. One of the highlights was "Silent Night," performed by the orchestra and a solo hula dancer. Merry Christmas, Raiders. #iolanioneteam

@MrsR_Villanueva @kaweihi @bbtinkerer @mrtom808 I recently started learning to play the piano!! I'm totally addicted!! I'm teaching myself Christmas songs after being inspired by my 2nd graders!

@kaweihi Got my present early from my husband @bbtinkerer. Falling in love with playing music again! We should do an educators showing secret music talents! @mrtom808 play French horn and DJing!

@HSGKristen @kaweihi @MrsR_Villanueva Let’s do it!

@HEdamura @kaweihi @MrsR_Villanueva Thank you so much, @HEdamura! Adding these to my list! This is making me want to start a book club. I somehow remember talking with you about that awhile back? #808educate

Q3: Wind: How are you planning to catch your breath and boost your sails while you take a much needed winter break from the demanding workload of an educator? #808educate

@MrsR_Villanueva @kaweihi Me too! Let me know how!

@kaweihi I want to join somehow without the Apple Watch lol. #808educate

I'm all charged up about empowering more Ts to take better care of themselves. It's not selfish to take care of your mind, body and soul. Who wants to join? #808educate

@MrsR_Villanueva A3: I plan to unplug and soak up as much sunshine as I can! #808educate

@HSGKristen @kaweihi @MrsR_Villanueva A few that I just finished were The Henna Artist, Before We Were Yours, and Pachinko. All great reads!

@kaweihi @MrsR_Villanueva I need book suggestions! I'd love a fiction book that I can get totally lost in #808educate

@mcdonald_kecia A2: Biggest challenge BY FAR is teaching both in-person students AND distance learners at the same time. The planning and prep each day is on a whole new level. Fortunately, I have @rosaberry24 by my side.

...and into every life, some rain must fall 🌧 Q2 is up: what has been your greatest challenge in the first semester? Answer below OR quote tweet and post your answer. Start with A2 and include #808educate
