@kellyparksocs @ECGlobalElem This is awesome!

Hands-on learning helps ideas rise—just like pancakes! The science behind pancakes is a delicious mix of chemistry, physics, and biology. Fifth grade students found a delicious hands-on way to explore states of matter and chemical changes! #handsonlearning #science @ECGlobalElem

@kellyparksocs @ECGlobalElem Great pic!!

In our school each day, eagles learn the world-changing way! The 25-26 ECGE staff have our eyes in the sky and our feet on the ground! #teamwork #schoolcommunity @ECGlobalElem

Dr. Claudia Smith was selected as a 2025 LatinxEd Fellow! The five-month program provides professional development for Fellows and culminates with a graduation ceremony in November 2025.

@gggstidham And they are so lucky to work with you!!😊

I’m so lucky to work with these amazing people. Their talent runs deep!

@kellyparksocs @ECGlobalElem This is great! Way to go Mrs. Parks, and way to go Efland Cheeks!!!

It was worth it to be hit with HUNDREDS!!! of water balloons - each representing a passed test in 3-5! Every kid participated because we just had that many, so the celebration was for everyone!! #proudprincipal @ECGlobalElem

@BrandonWarrenNC @wxbrad Love this!!

@wxbrad Just posted similar data from my Tempest. I’m near RDU so I use that for comparison. March and April were about +4° and May was +2°. I received 15” of rain which is about +4” above average. (I used past 30 years data for average).

Happy first day of meteorological summer. Spring 2025 tied for the 2nd warmest on record in #Charlotte 1878-2025. Yes, last week was very cool, but the entire season was very warm. The cool snap actually dropped us back to the tie for 2nd, otherwise it would have been the warmest all by itself. March and April were the warmest with +4.8° and +5.2° above. May was just +0.8° above average. #cltwx #ncwx #scwx #wcnc

@lmgevans @AFMSChargers Yes, but not as much as they will miss you!!

Loved celebrating with our @AFMSChargers 8th Graders last night for their semi-formal! Going to miss these kiddos!

This is great!

@EducationNC Dr. Tim Drake’s article is a “must read” for anyone concerned about school leadership preparation. Hopefully, our state legislature will see it and do what’s best to support our public schools.

EdNC's Running Towards Disaster podcast continues, good news out of the High Country, and meet the new POY! - eepurl.com/je7WTs

@stevelassiter We are so proud of you, Dr. Lassiter!!!

Today was surreal. I returned to my alma mater, ECU, as the College of Ed’s guest speaker—on the 5th anniversary of earning my doctorate from NC State! 💜🎓 So proud of the 300+ grads stepping into education. The world is waiting for your light. #ECUEd #PublicEd

@NCTF_Program @ncstateTF Congratulations, Crystal!! We are so proud of you!!

The NC Teaching Fellows Program is excited to announce Crystal Espey as the new NCTF Assistant Director! Crystal has led @ncstateTF and will now lead various program activities working with campus directors at our 10 partner institutions! Welcome Crystal!#TeachNC #NCTF

@Leah_Carper @GCSchoolsNC So much to reflect upon, give thanks for, and enjoy!! CELEBRATE!!

This week, I had the privilege of participating in one of my favorite @GCSchoolsNC traditions: the graduation walks. High school seniors return to their elementary schools in caps and gowns, welcomed by cheering students and the teachers who helped them begin their journey. It’s a celebration of how far they’ve come and where they started. For me, this one was deeply personal. My daughter was part of McNair Elementary’s first kindergarten class, and now, she’s part of its first graduating class. But that’s not all: this NGHS graduating class was also my last homeroom class as a teacher. Watching them walk those halls again, grown and glowing with pride, reminded me why we do this work. This is the power of public education—strong starts, meaningful milestones, and a clear path forward. Guilford County Schools is building a trajectory of success for every student, every day and I’m so proud to be part of it. #publicschools #nced #classof2025 #seniorwalk #GCSandProud

@LangleyShelton @NELA_NCSU @NCStateCED So proud of you!!!

Congratulations to our two @NELA_NCSU interns, Jason Bracey & Rachel Brackney, on successfully presenting their final projects. Enjoy graduation next week! @NCStateCED
