If there ever was a hill I would die on, it’s this one. I was just talking to my middle schoolers about this today!!
I could not agree more @mrspencilstick
As an ELA teacher in high school my students love when I read to them. Why do we stop reading to kids in middle & high school for FUN? I do it everyday before kids leave my class—even if it’s a quick read. Let’s have Nevada Reading Week fun at MS &HS level too. #NVSTOY24 💙👩🏻🏫✨

The hardest part about coaching boys basketball as a female is hands down the male caregivers attending the games.
It had to be said.
Don’t be that guy.
Our @ffundlasvegas staff is safe, but our hearts are absolutely shattered. Thank you for checking on us and for your outpouring of love.
We’ll continue to reach out to our scholars and we ask that our community continues to rise up to ensure these things don’t keep happening.
Education Catch 22:
My middle schoolers don’t have a phone they can take out of the house.
Teachers aren’t fans of phones at their school.
And…
Students are responsible for taking screen shots of important information to share with parents.
So my kids tell me nothing.
On this #givingtuesday, please consider giving to @ffundlasvegas to make college a viable pathway for brilliant students who deserve equitable access to post-secondary education.

Thanks for believing in our kids and their dreams!
In 2004, 19 y/o us drove cross country to see the @F1 Indy GP.
~20 years later, we walked 2 miles to the first @F1LasVegas in our hometown.
A wish we’ve been dreaming about every Sunday for decades but never thought would come true.
And it was even better than we imagined.
@JacobsVegasLife Unpopular opinion, but walkways where pedestrians are visible is a safety hazard for the drivers on a stretch where they’ll be going 200+ mph. Also, walkways w/o reinforced walls could be a safety hazard for pedestrians if there’s a catastrophic event/crash w/ airborn debris.
I’m digging this “F1’s terrible & destroyed our city, now look @ me at the opening ceremony!” vibe that my feed has going on right now.
No judgement.
Really excited that you’ve joined us on the hype side.
Welcome! There’s plenty of room here! Wait ‘til you see the cars!
Unpopular opinion:
Drove down Sands between Koval and LVB.
Felt like Lewis Hamilton the whole time shouting “I’m driving on a Formula One track” out my window.
Worth. Every. Traffic jam. #LasVegasGP
@THLNevada@CIS_Nevada Happy happy 6 years with CIS, Tami! So grateful for your leadership and your continued belief and investment in our community’s young people. Here’s to many more! 🎉✨
My 7th year at @ChaparralHS_LV and the cleat game remains one of my favorite days of the year. Mix in homecoming and a 50th anniversary celebration and it was an even more incredible time.
So proud of @gochapsports for bringing home the cleat this year!!!
Such a great interview by @TheNVIndy. I want more and deeper conversations about education as an ecosystem - how leaders and community members can foster it & what it will take to create choice for all families in Nevada, not just provide choice to those who can capitalize on it.
“Ultimately, my hope, like any community, is that you want Nevada to be a place where we have a really robust ecosystem that supports our education. So whether it's charter schools, district schools, I hope that all those schools are working together.”

Today, @ffundlasvegas had the chance to give back in a different way at @WynnLasVegas#feedthefunnel.
So proud of this team for the work they do every day to open doors for our incredible students and for the light they bring to every space we enter. #fflvorg
