Thank you to Ms Grunden and her 4th Graders for having me out to read to them during Read Across America week. I received a very special set of thank-you’s that showed off some pretty impressive writing skills! @JBWatkinsES
What a wonderful text set and examples of source primary sources. Thank you for sharing @lauriesurles #ReadAcrossAmericaDay @ccpsinfo @SCESStars Loved sharing them with 2nd graders at Salem Elem!

It takes hard work to bring ideas to life. A very big thank you to @missydhill for her work yesterday. #oneCCPS is lucky to have someone so laser focused on serving our new teachers. Well done. #proudboss
This evening, #oneccps educators joined NTIP for bite-sized professional development sessions & networked with peers from all over our division. Facilitators & attendees engaged in small group convos, reflected together, & left with new ideas & connections! What an awesome day!

Martin Luther King Jr. Day is more than a day to honor his legacy. It's a call to stand against racism and injustice all year long.

As you commemorate #MLKDay, please remember my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of @TheKingCenter, which she founded less than three months after Daddy was assassinated. Without #CorettaScottKing, there would be no MLK Day.

I had the privilege of attending Moseley’s inaugural spelling 🐝 tonight. Congratulations super spellers! @ccpsinfo
So much to know about the “learning how to read” process. Thankful for researchers like Dr. Kilpatrick and others for identifying the crucial skills needed to be a successful reader. We’ve got this!
Thank you @phrum for bringing David Kilpatrick to CCPS! @DrD_CCPS @GRESDragons @GRES_Principal @srburnham326
