Lots of information to digest today about next week. We will be issuing district-wide communications tomorrow to staff and parents so that everyone knows what to expect. Right now, going through materials and planning on those communications. Thanks for your patience. #sd36learn

The best thing about writing isn’t editing, publishing, promoting or presenting. It isn’t winning awards.The best thing about writing is writing. Enjoy the process, savour the journey, build your worlds, live your characters. You’re a writer because you write. I’m writing.

At @LordTweedsmuir, we’re lucky to have an admin team that cares so much about our school that they go around early Monday morning picking up garbage to make our school look great. Not many principals or VPs would! #ltslearns #sd36learn

As cases continue to mount in @Surrey_Schools, with a second school closure and more to come, @SurreyTeachers demand the Board make significant changes to improve safety of schools, so that they can continue operating. The evidence is in: Stage 2 is not working! #bced #bcpoli

Teachers, don't feel bad if you don't have special videos or lessons online like others may have. This isn't America's got talent or a competition. Just con't to check on your students & families & do your best to meet their educational needs. That's all that matters.

My e-mail and Twitter trapline informs that many, many, many are ignoring the no travel edict today. Unless it's essential travel it's selfish travel right now.
