@mrbgilson This is a real struggle in education. In the non-education world is this a conversation? For example, do sales managers concern themselves with kindness when addressing staff performance? Our work is of upmost importance. We must kick “taking things personally” out of the convo.

[Connie Shafer @CVasquezShafer]

We are doing the right work but it sure is hard right now.

@cd4teach You matter...pass it on!

[Susan Tschirhart Fregeau @susanfregeau]

Isn’t it nice to be reminded that you matter? Doing this work it’s an incredible blessing. Tell someone today that they matter. ❤️@SallieMcvay @NISD @nisdelemelar

My daughter will love TWINS.

[Varian Johnson @varianjohnson]

In times like these, we must remember that Black people are not a monolith; we are defined by joy as much as pain (or even, in spite of).

So let’s do a giveaway: TWINS (coming Oct 6, w/ Shannon Wright) & THE PARKER INHERITANCE. Like or RT to enter. Drawing on 6/12. (US only)

[Cornelius Minor @MisterMinor]

The world is upside down. I wish I could support every student, every teacher, every community... Sadly, I can't. 😕

But I CAN share what I have. My recent audiobook is completely free for teachers (and everybody) this month. Be well. ❤️✊🏾🙂⬇️ https://t.co/KTO0vvyoPs

Word to @AlexSVenet. ❤️

@SalazarLolly We have never lacked our freedom in this way before. This escape is one we have never needed more. #InThisTogether

This was so profound to me! Never thought of it from this lens.

Blessed with to have this man as a leader.

[Brian Woods @briantwoods1]

Been off Twitter for a while and that will likely continue. Don't have near enough room to thank the thousands of @NISD employees who are leading this monumental shift in the way we teach, learn and feed our students. You are a source of hope in the lives of students. Be well.

[Connie Shafer @CVasquezShafer]

Thanks @Coach_MOrales for lending us your athletes and spirit team members. Our Reading Rally was a huge success largely in part to #HuskyNation.

[Juan Morales @Coach_MOrales]

Big Huskies got the opportunity to read to L'il Huskies. Our kids love all the fist bumps and high fives!
