It was amazing to share the first annual Cygnets Holiday Cheer, Light Up the Night with the SAS community. We enjoyed a festive dinner and some incredible performances in Memorial Chapel. A big thank you to the parent volunteers for their help in setting up the Cygnets Centre!

@BCSSbasketball @mike_p_johnson I sure was! I was at Mac as a student-teacher and also for my first year of teaching.

Just a reminder that kids need unconditional positive regard -- especially right now. That doesn't mean you accept poor behavior -- it means you see them as inherently human when they make a mistake, recognize they're doing the best they can & never withhold warmth or affection.

Great #DEI session w/ our @havergal MS students. Thanks to Ms. Miller for a great discussion! We viewed this TEDxTalk by Jay Smooth on building capacity within ourselves to address DEI at the personal level through generous dialogue and shared language.

“I became aware kids were texting w/ parents at school. If a child texts & says, “I got a bad grade,” & you respond, you take away the opportunity for them to learn to pull themselves together.” — @csteineradair “We need to teach kids agency.” —@jlythcotthaims #parentinginplace
