In high school: Why do I need biology, chemistry, and physics? I'll never use this stuff in real life.
Twenty years later: Vaccines are a conspiracy. GMOs are poison. I've done my research.
Science isn't about memorizing facts.
It's about learning to tell facts from nonsense.

Good morning. Take care of people who take care of people. At the end of the day we need each other and the litmus test for how well we live our lives is how well we treat others. Today hold tight to your caring heart. Happy Friday✨

The coach of the Notre Dame football team, which defeated Georgia in their 12th consecutive win at the Sugar Bowl advancing to the semi-finals, Marcus Freeman, is a convert to Catholicism who reinstated the tradition of the Notre Dame football team attending Mass before games, which had been discontinued under the previous coach.

Let us continue to pray for martyred Ukraine, where even hospitals and other civilian buildings are being targeted. May we pray for Palestine, Israel, Lebanon, Myanmar, and Sudan. Let us pray for peace throughout the world.

Incredibly grateful to @WCDSBInnovates for supporting their educators in this!! We're thrilled to have taken part and look forward to also supporting their educators on their esports journey ❤️
Last week we hosted @WCDSBInnovates for an esports PD night at @ConestogaC and in the Esports Hub.
K-12 faculty were empowered with sessions, resources, and gaming consoles to support esports programming at their schools 🎮🎒
Best of luck to all aspiring WCDSB coaches & leads!

It’s not just the classroom teacher but everyone from the bus drivers, front office staff, superintendents, and cafeteria staff.
The school impact comes from EVERYONE that interacts with our children.
The engagement, relationships, and connections make an impact at home too.

Coach K said, "In order to get better, you change limits. And when you change limits, you're going to look bad and you're going to fail."
Failure isn't a destination, it's a checkpoint.
• It means grit.
• It means courage.
• It means choosing to endure.
