Our Christmas gift each year from our principal is a book of our choice. The only rule: it cannot be a book about teaching. It has to be a book that we want to read for pleasure. My principal, Sue Haney, invests in the reading lives of our entire staff. EVERY. SINGLE. EMPLOYEE.

Today we enjoyed a luncheon with our Buildings, Grounds, Custodial & Maintenance team. We regularly notice them going above & beyond. Dr. Tess recognized the heart that goes into their work & thanked them for being an integral part of our school community.

There's something special about students being so excited about their research topics that they can't stop talking about them and shout in disgust when someone else chooses a topic they were interested in. Research can be fun, everyone! #tlchat

Enjoyed a great day of creativity, community building, and learning at Crow Island today! I experienced my first Pioneer Room and then, after transporting back from 1840 stumbled upon a Elephant & Piggie shadow puppet show!

@DrBradJohnson I heard once that people join organizations but they leave leaders. From then on, I wanted to be a leader that no one wanted to leave. It’s an important reminder that others want to be a part of something bigger than their self but one person can make them look elsewhere.
