Room 367 is closed for good. My 30 year teaching career has concluded and retirement has begun!

The day before the AP Lit exam is always Chalk Walk day! 🥰 #teachersky #edusky #aplit

My school has a farm and today my students requested a walk to see the new babies. #teacherlife #classof2025 #graduatingtogether #retirement

This week my students are reviewing our major texts before their AP Lit exam. This is my last year teaching- my 30th. So far their favorites have been A Thousand Splendid Suns and Our Missing Hearts, though they responded positively to them all. 💕 #aplit #teacherlife #literature #booklove

My school is built on a large man made pond (it was the 60s) and yesterday a green heron visited right outside my door. We have blue herons and a flock of Canada geese (nesting now!) all year, but this our first green! 💚 #edusky #teachersky

Teachers and public education is going through it right now, but tonight my Union (CMCEA, TEA, NEA) honored our Distinguished Educators, Administrators, Support Staff members at our annual awards banquet. I’m retiring after 30 years, and I’m lucky to be lifted up in solidarity. 🩵

A tree fell on our house during the terrible storms in TN last week. The chickens think it’s an upgrade to the yard. 😂🐓

The Pompeii exhibit in Memphis was spectacular. If it travels to your area, it’s a must see.

One of the ‘chills’ moments… 🩵
Cory Booker as he breaks Strom Thurmond's speaking record: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here despite his speech. I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people are more powerful."

Yes! More of this! Thank you Senator Booker!
Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

Am I slightly buzzed? Yes. Am I jazzed about Coach Kim and my Lady Vols today? YESSSSSSSSS 🩵🧡🩵🧡

Tell me what month it is without telling me what month it is! 😂 Go Vols! 🩵🧡
