@Kerr_Kurr I have no words but you are in my prayers. I have two sons, I would feel just like you, numb, lost, and in deep agony. It’s times such as these where you can’t express yourself. We cry for and with you. From a stranger that loves her neighbor. Romans 8:38, 39

@jgrayatua @JimiHendrix @AlabamaCsta This is priceless🤣

Just received this from one of our star AP CSP teachers. Not sure what new persona this means I have to take on (but I may have preferred to be @JimiHendrix with a guitar). @AlabamaCsta

ECS Equity aha moment: A teacher’s response, “Structure your class in such a way that ‘every’ student can see over the fence. You have to have variety and flavor in your class.”⁦@exploringcs⁩ ⁦⁦@AlabamaCsta⁩⁦@CSforAllTchrs⁩

During ECS summer Pd @ Tuskegee University, a teacher made a profound statement regarding universal teaching strategies, “How do I give students the best of me to get the best out of them?”.⁦@exploringcs⁩ ⁦@AlabamaCsta⁩⁦@CSforAllTchrs⁩
