On this Veteran’s Day, we’re celebrating Cindy Snell, who has been at @FriendshipVCS for 24 years. A proud Navy veteran and former Hospital Corpsman, Cindy continues to share her story of service with students each year, showing them what it means to serve your country—and that women can lead and succeed in the armed forces. Thank you, Cindy, for your service and dedication! #VeteransDay

It was to visit and engage in great conversations with the Proud Principal @FriendshipVCS, Mr. Rednour. Enjoyed visiting classrooms with him. #CultureOfExcellence

Special thanks to the DeLand Walmart Neighborhood Market for the flower donation. Our students wouldn’t have had the same learning experience without your support. So thank you!! It’s businesses like you, that keep learning fun! 🌼🌸🌺🪻🧑🏼‍🔬👩🏻‍🔬👨🏾‍🔬@Walmart @volusiaschools @VCS_Partners

Today, Friendship Elementary had their Career Day event, which included firemen, sheriffs officers, a flight attendant, a small business owner, animal control, health care, Channel 9 reporter, and more. I was honored to be asked by the parent liaison, Jennifer Lebrun, to help fill in when a few people had to cancel last minute.

If you would like to help with any of our Career Day events over the next couple of months, please let me know. We’d love to have you!! And trust me, it’s the best way to start the day!! ☺️❤️🏫 @volusiaschools @FriendshipVCS

These kind of events promote the joy of learning, but they are great for building community too. I was happy to participant. Thank you to all our partners for your support of @volusiaschools!!

Special thanks to the following event sponsors: Texas Roadhouse, Simply Healthcare Plans, All-Star Barbers, for giving free haircuts to our families, and Safe Tax Orange Blossom Trail for the many raffles they brought and gave away, including a TV. Our students and their families really enjoyed the whole evening!

The scientists at @FriendshipVCS were using spring scales to measure force in newtons (N). Investigate and describe that the greater the force applied to it, the greater the change in motion of a given object. @ElemSci #VCSscientists
