@Thomas_Gifted @lrsd @dlsmith1221 @DrJermallWright @ErickaMcCarroll I enjoyed every minute. Thanks for capturing this, for the invite and all the work each of you did to make sure the event was meaningful for the teachers.

Grateful to have moderated two panels of inspiring Teachers of the Year at the @lrsd’s Novice Teacher Mini-Conference. Their insights on staying motivated, navigating challenges, & maintaining a positive classroom climate were truly invaluable. #reimaginingLRSD

@SarahR_Morris @Kate__Barnes @Office4EdPolicy When I think back to that session, I still smile! You all did a great job!

[Stacey James McAdoo @2019ATOY]

I truly don’t understand how 30 mins can fly by when I’m talking to educators but move so slowly when I’m cleaning! Thx, @JustinMinkel, for the invite to share space with the teacher leaders in your Current Issues in Education class to discuss policy, advocacy & teacher voice!

The Teachers Support Teachers Gala was a great way to bookend the hard work of the Teach Plus Arkansas Policy Fellows, some of who drove up to four hours for our work session. Congratulation, Katy Moore, for being awarded the Donna Powell English Excellence Award!

[Stacey James McAdoo @2019ATOY]

I am beyond thrilled to work along side such dynamic leaders on the 1 Million Teachers of Color campaign. Today’s virtual meeting had me in all my feels and super excited about the work ahead.

[Stacey James McAdoo @2019ATOY]

@OsyrusBolly @KwamiAbdulBey It was truly an honor to converse with y’all! Thanks for the invite.

[Teach Plus Arkansas @teachplusar]

If you’re an Arkansas educator who’s feeling overwhelmed by all the reform talk and/or are looking for ways to get involved but don’t know where to start, you should jump on our Wednesday zoom call to hear from our Policy Fellows/teacher leaders.

[Stacey James McAdoo @2019ATOY]

These teacher leaders fill my heart with so much love and pride.

[Teach Plus Arkansas @teachplusar]

These Policy Fellows were at the Capitol today meeting with legislators to discuss their action research & policy recommendations on early childhood education, teacher retention, increasing teacher diversity, and addressing the mental health needs of our students.#teacherleaders
