Today was Dress Like a Super Hero Day. I definitely work with so many “incredible” people who are CAPEable of doing so much. @SpoedeTurtles@LadueSchools@LadueSupe

Presented with @brooke_bilby on the success of Ladue’s Enrichment program for identifying underrepresented students at the Powerful Learning Conference today. Great to see one of our former gifted sts who is now a gifted Specialist in our session. @LadueSupe@dramy_z
@donnayford I’ll be singing the praises of a MAJOR scholar in gifted Ed, YOU on Monday when I present at the Powerful Learning Conference. You have inspired our district to do a better job identifying our sts and we continue to increase our identification and representation in our program!
I had to share. A MAJOR scholar in #gifted#Education just said to me: “The world desperately needs more Donna Fords in it.” Super honored! #Black and proud!!
The very best way to end a week is when a former student pops by for a visit. He said, “I love 7th grade math because my teacher is amazing.” Hats off to Brian Griffin for being an amazing math teacher. You are making a difference! @LadueMiddle@LadueSupe@drA_Thompson
The gifted specialists worked hard to unpack, sort, and prepare our new Spike Prime and Spike Essential robotics kits. Thank you Ladue Education Foundation for supporting our students through this generous grant! @laduefoundation@firstlegoleague@brooke_bilby@LadueSupe
Look who came to visit. Former OB Eagles! Apparently, the FGC is pretty cool but they didn’t forget where they came from! #ob4eva Happy First Day, Ladue! 💙🤍 @Ladue5thGrade@TaggertOb
Excited for the PAWS clinic to open its doors! LHWHS Comparative Anatomy students get to learn in a real vet clinic ran by our own Dr Welting! Thanks Dr. Weltig for all of your hard work!! Thanks also to @laduefoundation for helping fund this program! @LadueSupe@LadueSchools
Great to be back with Principal @TaggertOb and Assistant Principal Mrs. Garrett and the rest of the OB gang! It was a fun day reconnecting and unpacking. OB construction project is looking AMAZING. We are outfitted in so many ways. @LadueSchools@LadueSupe
The best part of being on the New Teacher/Mentor Committee is feeding off the energy & excitement of our new teachers! Thanks for a great orientation week! What a fantastic bunch of new teachers! Welcome to the Ladue Crew! @LibrarySpoede@LadueSupe@LadueSchools
After a week full of learning, the new teachers got a chance to just hang out and play games together. Welcome to our Ladue Family! @LadueSchools@SpoedeTurtles@LadueSupe
Thank you to the Ladue cheerleaders for kicking off our New Teacher Orientation Week. You also brought a lot of “cheer” to us by dressing up as our mascots. @LadueSchools@LadueSupe@SpoedeTurtles
The Ladue New Teacher/Mentor Committee did a wonderful job of welcoming our new teachers today! I was honored to meet everyone! We have an amazing new group of teachers coming to us this year! @LadueSchools@dramy_z@jhelm99@KimberlyM719
