If your workplace is in need of a little winter morale boost, I highly recommend hosting a chili cook-off! We had 12 different chilis enter our competition and it was a blast!

I finished my 100th book of the year on 12/31 at about noon and I was so excited! Keeping my goal at 100 books again for 2025 because I was cutting it close 😅 Always accepting book recommendations if anyone has any good ones!

What's a saying or phrase that you are GUARANTEED to hear every week in your office?

Lately, my coworker/office roommate and I catch ourselves saying "The days are long but the weeks fly" every Friday around 4:00 p.m. #SchoolPR

At a school talking to a teacher and principal, and she mentioned that she was reading Magic Hour by Kristin Hannah, and it made me happy because I LOVE that book. The principal added it to her TBR too. Now I'm thinking, should I start a #bookclub in my district? Has anyone else done it? #SchoolPR

Something about growing up in IL makes you loyal to the @chicagobearsobs.bsky.social NO MATTER WHAT. I can't explain it, we will just never not support this team no matter how much stress & disappointment they put us through. Are other states/cities like this?

If you're in #SchoolPR and work in a district office, I HIGHLY recommend hosting a staff spirit week!

I loved spirit week as a student and teacher, and our staff had so much fun with it this past week! Bonus points if you turn it into a contest, that drove a lot more engagement for us.

How do we all feel about snow in November? This year I'm okay with it because I put my Christmas decorations up last weekend! ❄️🎄

I won the Teacher Lists raffle I entered at INSPRA's state conference! I’m pretty sure that’s the first raffle I’ve won in my life....

Then I remembered I forgot to post this picture from the conference 😀

So fun to collab with other #schoolPR pros!

Hey #SchoolPR friends - let's chat! If your mission was to share some "untold stories" from around your district, where would you start?
