Amber Tisdel

Not every child walks back into school after Christmas break feeling rested, celebrated, or safe. For some kids, the holidays are loud. Or lonely. Or heavy. Or something they’re just relieved is over. So as they come through our doors this week, love on your kids a little extra. A smile. A gentle word. Sitting down at their level. Letting them talk—or just letting them be quiet. You may be the first genuine affection they’ve felt in two weeks. The first adult who sees them. The first place that feels steady again. School isn’t just academics. Sometimes it’s refuge. Sometimes it’s regulation. Sometimes it’s love. Lead with grace this week.

Today we’re celebrating our amazing Campus Instructional Coaches — the mentors and motivators who help teachers and students reach new heights every day! Thank you for all you do! #comalisd #growinggreatness

I’m grateful for an amazing week at Comal U 2025! It was a time of collaboration, digging into our standards, revisiting best practices, and learning alongside some truly inspiring educators. It’s a blessing to have had the opportunity to reflect, grow, and refine my practice!

A new chapter started at MVES today! Fabulous PD with Steve Ventura✅ Learning Intentions✅ Success Criteria✅ Ready to Grow Greatness✅ #cultivate

We had our first pep rally today, and it was amazing!! Several teachers created skits, cheers, and songs to introduce our positive Hawk Buck reward system. The students are excited and loved seeing their teachers perform. #growinggreatness #togetherwethrive #beyondblessed

We are beyond grateful for the time, love, and energy that our RSVP reading tutors devote to our students. It was extra special seeing a friend and former colleague from Humble ISD. #togetherwethrive #growinggreatness

@hanna_schramm Thank you. I would love for you to meet her.

@ambertisdel What?!! Yay! She is precious! I must meet her!

Time goes by so quickly!! Addison’s Texas Tech journey is almost complete, and she will be joining Canyon High School for student teaching in 2024. I’m beyond excited for her !! I guess I may have to wear red instead of green occasionally. 💚❤️ #CLHS #CHS #growinggreatness
