Science in 6th grade is all about worm life today. Students worked on their worm housing by providing hydration and food. They also checked their population for new babies. @MiddleNewport

Thank you, International Paper for meeting a need for our students and thanks also to the United Way for partnering with everyone to make it happen. 22 boxes of feminine hygiene products were delivered today for our high school students with lots of extra encouragement included.

The #NCSoutheastRegion 22-23 Middle Grades Leadership PLC participants are great examples of how learning is leadership.

An informative, engaging session with Rebecca @ncdpiDTL and our middle school teachers on using all the new features in Schoolnet to create assessments that are a meaningful experience for our students and teachers! @jody_mcclenny

Math is not pushing students through algorithms and worksheets. Building & encouraging curiosity around application is THE HOOK! Math can be exciting and meaningful for ALL students. MS math teachers are students on this ER day! New tools= new possibilities @jody_mcclenny

[Jessica Emory @Jess_Emory_CCPS]

The early release gave our HS Math Focus Group time to meet and problem solve: how do we best support our HS math teachers? best teach our students? make best use of our resources? These teachers are on 🔥 for math! @jody_mcclenny

The CCPS CTE EXPO is all about exposing our students to their high school CTE opportunities and get them thinking about their future as adults. It’s a great day to be an 8th grader in CCPS. @CCPSCTE @AllisonCTE @jody_mcclenny

Emotionally safe classrooms celebrate the productive struggle, recognize making mistakes as path to success, and honor the growth journey! #teachingrisktaking #safelearning @HeatherMTSS @jody_mcclenny

This topic is near & dear to my heart - why I went into education! Do we have practices in place that are pulling in ALL kids or pushing them out?"Sometimes, when we think we're measuring ability or potential,we're really measuring the impact of access&opportunity disparities"

[Jessica Emory @Jess_Emory_CCPS]

What a beautiful night of music by our East Carteret and Down East Middle School singers. @CCPSArts @jay_westbrook @DownEastMiddle1

[Jessica Emory @Jess_Emory_CCPS]

As leaders our days can feel like a whirlwind. When we focus in on one priority, we don’t ignore the other needs, but we center our work which leads to greater success. Consider what is wildly important and give it special treatment. @jody_mcclenny @annabrooks05

[Dr. Anna Brooks @annabrooks05]

Already great collaboration and we are only 30 minutes in this powerful PD with @LearningFocused and Lindsey Hampton! @jody_mcclenny @Jess_Emory_CCPS Lightning the way as we move forward in creating a culture of success for every single student!

[Jessica Emory @Jess_Emory_CCPS]

As we “move forward” post C… the big question to answer is “how do we catch kids up to grade level?” Spoiler alert - it’s about the strategies!! @annabrooks05 @jody_mcclenny

[Donyall D. Dickey Ed.D. @DonyallD]

Thank you Superintendent @Dr_Rob_Jackson for the opportunity to support teachers and leaders in @CarteretK12 — It was an awesome day and always a pleasure to see you. @jody_mcclenny @Jess_Emory_CCPS
