Had a chance to accompany @SofiaGeorgelos to the Oak Lawn Public Library today for #OLHMServes. The annual service learning day for our middle school students is such a valuable experience that connects kids with community! #d123

Had an awesome night at the #D123 Art Fair last night! I love seeing the talent of our students and the educators that support their creative expression.

Got to spend a little time today out with our #OLHMS Mustangs while watching #Eclipse2024! Had a great convo with a few students about the speed of the moon, and the lack of clouds in the sky. Cherished the raw curiosity this moment evoked. #D123

Thank you to everyone for particpating in our 1-23 Day celebration! It was a wonderful day to be at District 123. #d123

Thanks to @jgolz23 for the invite to join the OL Parks Wolfe Wildlife #OLHMS 7th grade field study on biotic & abiotic factors that contribute to the survival & prosperity of organisms in an ecosystem. Lots of extremely polite & curious students! No rat snakes though ☹️ #d123

It’s the first day of school for these @D123Sward Eagles. Have a great first day! #d123

Looking forward to starting the next step of my journey in education tomorrow as a 7th grade special education teacher in Lemont. Thank you to everyone that helped me get where I am today. @SofiaGeorgelos @PaulEnderle @joemacchia @AllisonNaddy @MGustafson_11

Thanks @DGDistrict58 for providing valuable experiences to my children as they continue to make their way through. We may be done with @HGHuskies, with only 2yrs of @HerrickMS left, but we won’t forget the community bonds and relationships formed that are lifelong. #dg58pride

Had an opportunity to listen to the pitches in the #OLHMS Entrepreneurship class “Shark Tank.” This is a great culminating project-based experience that helps to build adult-world skills & allows for creative & divergent ideas to flourish in the student focused experience. #d123

Spending some time at the Oak Lawn Library with @SofiaGeorgelos and Ms. Hoeksema on #OLHMS service learning day. #OLHMServes23 #D123

Loved attending the #D123 Art Show this evening! I am always amazed by our students' incredible talent & creativity. 🎩Hat tip to all the students, teachers and families!

The #D123 Board of Ed celebrated @D123Hometown school for their Title I Math & Literacy evenings and their success with the @AmericanHeartIL Jump Rope for Hearts program this evening.

Thank you @museumofscience for this video. Now I don’t have to justify placing my remote on my head to puzzled faces around me. 😂

Today is #WorldReadAloudDay at #D123. So great to have our #OLHMS students at @D123Sward school for the afternoon.

Thank you to Mrs. Trabadela for introducing how our school stories are shared through our school’s website d123.org/schools/Sward/… and our Twitter handle ⁦@D123Sward⁩ … we had a GREAT turn out at our PTA meeting tonight!! 😁 #d123 #swd123

This is a very interesting strategy. Reminds me of team dynamics in youth sports. #d123 weareteachers.com/secret-student…

Had a chance to stop by Sward career day today! It was really fun to hear the great student questions directed to all of the guest speakers. #swd123 #d123

A hat tip 🎩 to @BigJetTVLIVE. Even when presented with the worst conditions we have a choice to root for the triumph of those struggling to get to the finish line. #youcandoit #WEcandoit nytimes.com/2022/02/18/wor…

I wonder what other occupations we could learn from? edutopia.org/article/how-an…
