Perhaps a stretch - looking to talk to someone who holds some form of the title of ‘director of curriculum and instruction.’ If you should happen to see this, please send me a message! Thank you.

I believe (while we observe days) that it is important to not relegate the celebration of an individual to a day of the year when their impact transcends time. #CLIMBE

Happy Father’s Day…it’s a great day to celebrate the strength and wisdom that a father gives to his children. I’m grateful for mine, in his absence and the influence I’ve been able to have over those who call me that too!

We need to model what connection looks like as many of us as educators became connected via social media - was Twitter and not other spaces. Shout out to Melisa Hayes! Mystery Skype! @edumatch.bsky.social #EduMatch

How can we help students move from being simply content consumers to being content creators? @edumatch.bsky.social Yes - I think they need to see creation modeled! Then have the space to play with it, and create themselves. @jcasatodd.bsky.social #EduMatch
