“Everything you don’t know is something you can learn”

So true! 🙌

The lack of WiFi had me clinging to my positive narration for dear life 😂 — In my head the whole time like “don’t yell…don’t publicly shame…that is not the kind of teacher you are…” as I smile and write names of kids meeting expectations on the board and deep breathing lol

Here’s to another year of teaching my kids English while they teach me Spanish, attempt to teach me French, teach me how to write in Pashto and spend 180 days roasting me along the way 😂

“Now, is the choice you are making today getting you closer to your goal?”

@MRanglinVassell ME JUST REALIZING MY TYPO 😭 (as an English teacher I should’ve proofread omg) I will print you another and give it to you in August haha that can be the place holder!!!

Look Here!! I am truly honored to receive this prestigious Dancing Queen Award!! Thank you to everyone who voted for me!! Happy Summer Everyone, 23-24 SY is in the books💕

MELT MY HEART 😭❤️ Words can’t begin to express how blessed I was to have you this year. What a wild ride the 23-24 year was; lots of kids coming and going but all experiencing your sincere love and warmth. I think I speak for CHS as a whole when I say we ❤️ our dancing queen 🪩

A 4 year wish...granted. Been wanting a skateboard locker for Central since I arrived. Thanks to @downcitydesign and their amazing afterschool program at PCTA we planned all year and here it is!!! "Central Skates" here we come!!!! @CentralHSPvd @MissMaleiko @pvdschools

…and it’s not even the last day of school yet…

Many Americans are still confused why the post office and schools are shut down today: “It’s not a REAL holiday…” — a privileged view. I once read that people who never took the time to understand the sorrow of slavery will never be able to understand the joy of #Juneteenth ❤️

Quick history lesson about #Juneteenth ironic that this 1 and a half min video probably wouldn’t be allowed in a lot of schools across the country in 2024

Day 1 of finals —> complete✅🏁 Our countdown is officially small enough to be held with one magnet 😍 SIX👏MORE👏SCHOOL👏DAYS Soooo close to the finish line 💤

How did you impact the world around you today?

Day 1: FINAL EXAM OLYMPICS 🥇 aka 8 class days reviewing THE MOST important skills/vocabulary we learned throughout the year to prepare for our final. (review game in teams, then a “quickhit” worksheet so in the end they also have a packet to keep to refresh during summer) #esl

@MRanglinVassell Thank you 🥹❤️ I needed that. The world is more beautiful because of YOU as well.

Big Love to my co-teacher,Katie ⁦@MissMaleiko⁩ for always finding opportunities to help us remember #SelfCare! Thanks for all you do Katie, the world is a much more beautiful place because you’re here💗

The Knights of the Mayor's Youth Prevention Team gettin' after it! @CentralHSPvd @Fsalvadore10 @RobertDiMuccio1 @pvdschools @PTU958 @ThinkFast

One of the students reading Freddy a book about empathy as part of mental health awareness month. (Freddy, our therapy dog, already knows all about empathy… but he didn’t mind hearing her read to him anyway cause he knew it was helping her confidence) 🐾📖❤️ #SELintheclassroom

I got three new (like full on new to the school) students this week and all of them have already ended up on the MVP board! 24 school days left and we got some hard working kids 🎉
