Daylight savings in kindergarten, 10 of my 13 students today shared they are feeling tired during morning meeting... same.

This.

What's your magic number? Ours is 120. That's how many students, coaches, teachers, and parents that have volunteered to help run our youth basketball tournament on Saturday. A shout out to all of you-thanks in advance for helping our kids get some more shots up this weekend!

A little scratch lesson to start the day with @BootUpPD 🙂

Welcome to Iowa. 5am- winter 8am- spring 1pm- summer 7pm- fall

Fact. School paper towels are the least absorbent material on the planet.

Name something better than new decals…I’ll wait 🙂

@KnappJean @SLESTornadoes Love this!!!

Schools do not thrive because of programs or plans… they thrive because of the passionate educators in the building.

When you find out about the home life of some of your students, it will change your attitude and your approach toward those students. It must.

A lot of times teaching is just as much about believing in yourself as it is about believing in your students.

@lestans Have you brushed your teeth?! So weird to not taste the peppermint like normal 😬

Make a child smile today.

Are first day jitters still valid when you're 22 years old and its your first day of your masters program? asking for myself.... 💻🍎

I keep catching myself thinking, “we are all just doing the best we can given the circumstances” but are we really...?

Here’s to hoping 2021 allows us to be better TOGETHER (with masks for now of course) 🙂

We have some pretty amazing adults in our community that believe community partnerships between agencies grows a better future for us all. Grateful to all the adults who made this fun thing happen for our kids before they went home for winter break. #AmericasSchool
