Express, don’t suppress your emotions. You are allowed to cry. Heck, you can even scream. Just don’t give up. Believe good things are coming your way. - Kristen Butler

VA Rep has been awarded a grant to bring Disney Musicals in Schools to four CCPS elementary schools- at no cost to the schools! This partnership is the first of its kind in VA and aims to create theater programs at under-resourced schools that may not have access to the arts!

We've partnered with @rvasymphony to make an opera from scratch, and we invite you to see it in progress! We're co-commissioning Loving v. Virginia - an operatic retelling of the Supreme Court case that legalized interracial marriage. Reserve your seat: bit.ly/3thGNy5

Getting ready for Book-o-Ween!

In the words of Lizzo “It’s about durn time!” So proud of @jsaunders2nd on getting the acknowledgment she so deserves.

Conexus distributed glasses to 30 students at Harrowgate Elementary @ccpsinfo this morning and for most of these children, the pair of glasses they received today was their very first pair! For these kids, poor vision will no longer be a barrier to success in the classroom.

Trust the people who spend 180 days with your child, who feed, nurture and care about your child— their teachers.❤️🍎 #trustteachers

“When you criticize your kids all the time, they don't stop loving you. They stop loving themselves. Let that sink in.”

Grateful for our community partners that participated in Principal for a Day! @CECLAseahorse @CCPSPreschool @ChesterfieldVa

So true. 🙌

I’m very grateful to @liz4schoolboard for proposing a resolution to protect the rights of transgender and non-binary students @RPS_Schools and to the School Board for passing it last night. Excellent example of our motto: Teach, Lead, Serve with Love.

A HUGE Shout Out to our September Mustang Faculty and Teacher of the Month!! Ms. Louise continues to remain dedicated to our students each day. Mr. Roberts' ensures that students know the importance of physical and emotional well-being. #livelikeamustang @ccpsinfo @CCPSFACE1
