I understand why no one will jump in to defend Ukraine, as no one wants WWIII, but it feel so wrong to see a democratic nation trying to be overtaken by a dictator and the rest of the world just watches and is lighting up buildings like that helps.

I’m sorry but I will take a 6-8 week full strict lockdown if it means we can have our lives back by March.

YOU can change the climate and culture of your grade level, your department, your coaching staff, your school. If you are waiting for someone else to change it, you could be waiting forever.

Lexington City Schools will begin the school year with Plan C (at least until September 18th). Continue to keep safe and implement the 3 Ws (Wear, Wait, and Wash). @LCSJackets @CityofLexington @SWEJackets @PESJackets @ncsupers

LCS has made a call that we must respect and one that is of upmost importance. The health and safety of our student athletes outweighs anything else. We are excited about an eventual return, but we will follow every guideline given to us. No workouts starting on Monday, the 6th.

Ms. Holly Hinson was one of LSHS’s finest. She was an invaluable asset to our family, a true Yellow Jacket as a graduate of this institution. She was a quintessential educator who loved our children dearly. She will truly be missed.

friendly reminder in times of uncertainty and misinformation: anecdotes are not data. (good) data is carefully measured and collected information based on a range of subject-dependent factors, including, but not limited to, controlled variables, meta-analysis, and randomization

And just like that, it’s over. On this day in 1781, the Battle of Yorktown ended.

This is how grownups handle criticism. Particularly those elected to the highest office in this country. #25thAmendmentNow
