Building: physically and emotionally. Doing work in the @maginnovationlab and sharing affirmations in our affirmation mailboxes! #maglionpride #cusdlearns

The Innovation Lab is almost ready to open. Can’t wait to see what these Magnolia Lions will build together! #innovation #makerspace #maglionpride #cusdlearns

The way math learning should be: hands-on, collaborative, creative and FUN. CGI Math for the win! @mrsmacbethatmag @mrs_tdavid @Stephbent143 @melanielupica #cusdlearns

My daughter (Grade 2) to my son (K): You’re really going to like this school. Everyone’s really nice and fun. ❤️ Thank you @MagPrincipal and team for an amazing afternoon. Wishing everyone lots of good sleep tonight and a fun day tomorrow!

First day back with our team. Teachers leaning in to what’s next for our kids. The comeback is bigger than the setback. Let’s go! #cusdlearns #maglionpride

Congrats @AndrewLuria and the MagTV team on their @iVIEAwards this past weekend. Such quality work! Very well deserved. #maglionpride #cusdlearns

"You can either be judged because you created something or ignored because you left your greatness inside of you. Your call." –@JamesClear

I was so excited to see my students open their books that THEY published. Thank you @studentreasures for making this possible. @MagPrincipal #cusdlearns @melanielupica @armstrongjill5

Shoutout to all the teachers. Credentialed or not. Licensed or not. Graduate degree or not. The ones who makes souls sing and help us to pursue the best versions of ourselves. You are deeply appreciated #HipHopEd #TeacherAppreciationWeek

@TechNinjaTodd Avoid giving advice. Focus on asking good questions. Sometimes what we think the problem may be, combined with our desire as leaders to rescue people and “fix” it, is detrimental to both parties and may not get you any closer to solving the real problem.

A3: When preparing for difficult conversations, what's your number one piece of advice? #TLAP

Congrats to Mrs. McDonald for being awarded the Teachers are Heroes award, and a big thanks to @ksonSanDiego and @azusapacific for recognizing her amazing work. Way to represent the pride! #maglionpride #cusdlearns
