I'm excited to announce that I have returned to Hampton City Schools. I'll be teaching Spanish at Hampton HS, where i began my career.
I met 2 new colleagues at New Teacher Orientation, wishing them a fantastic first year of teaching!

Four years ago I wrote my inaugural poem The Hill We Climb. Both when I wrote it and performed it, I did so while continuously reflecting on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and Coretta Scott Kingβs legacy. I was (and am) blown away by how my words reverberated around the world; if anything, it proved to me that we honor Kingβs dream, by daring to dream big, and by, most importantly, daring to dream together. Only then will the loving fantasies of our better nature transform into reality. The work and fight for the dream persists, and whatβs more, it is not just a fight, but fateβthat perhaps we are as destined for this time as it is destined for us. What a worthwhile, powerful calling only we can answer. Here with you in the hill and the climb, and whatever light lies beyond, whatever light lies within.

Dr. Debbie Hunley-stukes is/was my official principal mentor upon arriving to Booker T. Washington HS in January. She has provided insight, encouragement, & direct support in just about every aspect of my work. I endorse her without hesitation!
Last Wednesday, I presented before the School Board of Norfolk Public Schools. As the proud principal of Booker T. Washington High School, I was honored to update the board, alongside the Chief Academic Officer, on the status of our STEAM initiative.
The Booker T. Washington High School STEAM Team is working at a summer retreat to plan, prepare, and produce our introductory STEAM units as we begin the Booker T. Washington HS STEAM Academy through Norfolk Public Schools! #letsgomightybookers#principalproud#fullsteamahead
The Biden-Harris Administration has released its first set of draft rules to provide student debt relief for tens of millions of borrowers.
If implemented, these rules & others announced by @POTUS would help bring relief to 30+ million borrowers.

Mrs. Sheila Walker teaches the Virginia Teachers for Tomorrow class. This course focuses on the foundations of education--preparing the next wave of teachers. Here, students play the learning games they created to help them understand the role of "play" in education. Great class!
