Thank u to @DuPageChildrens for having Sam and me at the Questioneers exhibit opening. It's a great mix of foundational Math, language, and STEM experiences. And an amazing paper airplane launcher!

Congratulations to the educators, students, and families of @HonortheRaiders and @RHSSpartan. Bolingbrook and Romeoville High Schools are both highly rated (top 16% in Illinois) and moving up the rankings. Wonderful work going on at both schools. @VVSD365U https://t.co/ZXNvoIfdM4

Colleague LeVar Ammons @Equityin365U sharing with @VVSD365U leaders this morning: "Our role as educators is to remove barriers." He put a fine point on it & highlighted what our district is all about. The power of 120+ leaders removing barriers for kids is immense.

[Adam Hurder @AdamHurder]

Appreciate the diverse group of "Those Who Excel" students from @BHS_Raiders1 @RHSSpartan in @VVSD365U who were celebrated today
Their common lessons learned in high school: perseverance, setting goals, & leading your own learning

Saw this on the @ASCD email update today - such an important lesson for educators (and families) of early learners and older students alike. There is no such thing as a "Math brain." @VVSD365U

The outstanding equity committee @BHS_Raiders1 is continuing to raise awareness of the need to include every one of our students. Shining a light on racial differences, ethnic differences, LGBTQ awareness, and neurodiversity awareness. @VVSD365U #EveryLearner365
