SURN colleagues: The SURN Novice Teacher Academy was featured in The Learning Professional this month! Thanks to all of you for making this happen!

@wmSURN is proud to engage with other leadership organizations across the state! Follow us and share in the learning and resources @VA_Partners4Edu

No more random acts of family engagement! Our families must leave eventsknowing more about what their students should know & be able to do & they must leave knowing how to use a new tool at home to support these goals! @karen_mapp & @DrSConstantino challenging us @wmSURN today!

“We need to begin thinking radically about education. Sometimes innovation is doing things that haven’t been done before, or it could be about doing what’s appropriate at the time. It’s about making connections & forging relationships.” @SirKenRobinson @ChrisJacobsGRHS @GRHSiLab

Play is not frivolous and optional; play is fundamental! Thank you @SirKenRobinson for reminding us all!

If the next time you say ‘hello’ to a student in the hallway they look startled & confused, then it more than likely means there aren’t enough adults speaking to #students in non-academic spaces. It also means it’s time to double down on greetings & salutations. #education

This is everyone’s responsibility! Thanks @ashleyfellis and give it a listen and read, colleagues. Kids need our help understanding the differences they see!
