Full circle moment: we hosted current @PeaceCorps volunteers for dinner while in Ecuador with my @SalineHS students during our service-learning trip with @TandanaFdn#servicelife
I got some of the most thoughtful thank you notes from the @SalineHS 2023 class.
This was, certainly the most creative.
They’re off to great new adventures!

@SalineHS students learning and serving is about as good as it gets in public education. What an uplifting reminder of our global connections and our capacity to learn through action.
In a new blog, read about Saline High School's volunteer and cultural immersion trip to Ecuador. The students enjoyed their experience, which included painting a school mural, even without speaking Spanish. https://t.co/onSIfmn5IV
Not sure I've ever read a better short take on the fatal flaw of accountability-based school reform - "the most efficient tool ever devised to destroy a student’s interest in learning" - as this one by @DLabaree. He zeroes in on the difference between effectiveness and efficiency
I had a wonderful time spending #EarthDay2023 with @PouredOut
Working with old and new friends on bringing clean water to communities is one of the best ways to spend a Saturday.

No student, educator, or staff member should ever feel unsafe at school.
I urge Congress to listen to the students in Nashville and ban assault weapons to protect our schools and our children.
Student voices matter.
Feeling lucky🍀 and proud to present with @Ms_ClarkSHS at #SSWCA2023 “Standing up for Our Centers: Ideas for Legitimizing Our Work,” and inspired by the professionalism and enthusiasm of our @SalineHS@SHSWritingCTR student participants.
This group of @SalineHS students spent an amazing week with @TandanaFdn and three schools/students on murals depicting Ecuadorian environment and learning about indigenous Kichwa history, resilience, and culture. #servicelearning#learnmoretogether
@nylcorg As a UA grad, I absolutely love this!
As a service-learning instructor, I hope my district can work towards a systematic integration of experiences like these in our schools.
