Shout-out to @ArkTeacherCorps Fellow and 3rd grade teacher LeAndra Grant for her powerful opening remarks about the importance of the #ScienceOfReading at Wednesday's screening of the documentary film "The Right to Read" with executive producer LeVar Burton! #ATCfamily #ReadAR

Check out this amazing profile of ATC 2019 fellow Nneka Love! Thank you @Rural_Schools for featuring our outstanding rural teachers and the impactful work they do! Thank you Nneka for all you do for the students of Lee County SD! #ATCfamily #EmpoweredTeachers #EmpowerStudents

So excited to be working with Candace at @TheNewRuralAR and the entire @Rural_Schools team to better support rural teachers, schools, and communities across Arkansas!

It’s great to see @ArkTeacherCorps alumni being celebrated nationally for the tremendous work they do. Congratulations to @PineBluffSD teacher TyKesha Cross for this inspiring feature on the TODAY Show!

We're so proud of @ArkTeacherCorps, which offers an accelerated teaching path at a time when many Arkansas schools are facing severe teacher shortages. A new $3.6 million Walton Family Foundation grant will help expand and strengthen the program. news.uark.edu/articles/63501…

@ArkTeacherCorps recently received a $3.6 million Walton Family Foundation grant that will help expand and strengthen the program with support for 105 new teaching fellows 🥳🎉 news.uark.edu/articles/63501…

WE CARE by recruiting, training, and supporting individuals to teach students who need them most through @ArkTeacherCorps. ATC provides an accelerated path to teaching for high-performing, talented people who want to have a lasting impact on Arkansas communities. #coephWECARE

The Arkansas Teacher Corps recently shifted from recruiting newer college grads to helping teachers already working but who aren't licensed. It now offers its intensive training and ongoing coaching virtually, too. yhoo.it/3JfE4OD

A huge THANK YOU to @2019ATOY and @teachplusar for co-hosting tonight's chat, esp pulling together the logistics and taking a Twitter newbie like me under their wing! 😂

Q6: What can or should be added to the school environment to enhance the promotion of self-care for students? #SelfCareSeptember #Q6

@teachplusar A5: long term we need higher pay + better benefits + accessible medical care (physical AND mental)...but a more immediate step would be confidential wellness coaching and mental health services for adults in the building

Q5: What can or should be added to the school environment to enhance the promotion of self-care for educators? #SelfCareSeptember #Q5

@teachplusar Q4: I would say to start small with whatever feels most urgent or necessary and is easily done. It's better to build momentum and not feel overwhelmed by adding too much too fast. Also remembering to "change" or "remove" as much as we "add" #SelfCareSeptember

Q4: What is one quick tip or piece of advice that you can offer for a new teacher about practicing self-care? #SelfCareSeptember #Q4

Q3: What are some specific things you do to set boundaries? #SelfCareSeptember #Q3

@teachplusar A2: when I feel my heart start racing = box breathing (4 counts in, hold for 4, 4 out) + sensory grounding (5 things I see, 4 I can touch, 3 I can hear, 2 I can smell, & 1 I can taste) #SelfCareSeptember
