As a social worker in #LJTECHi3, I learned that tech can help remove barriers, support mental health, & connect students & families to resources. Technology didn't replace relationshipsโit strengthened them. โค๏ธ

Gen Alpha is often described as tech-savvy, connected, curious, influential, and highly educated. As educators, understanding how they learn and interact with the world helps us create engaging, relevant, and meaningful learning experiences that support their success. #LJTECHi3
Learning about Gen Z & Gen Alpha reinforced the importance of understanding how today's students learn, communicate,& connect. As a school social worker, this helps me support student engagement, mental health,& digital citizenship while meeting students where they are. #LJTECHi3
POV: This school social worker was raised on Lisa Frank energy and refuses to let students heal in boring spaces. โจ๐
Help me stock our alternative ed healing room. They deserve a safe space too.๐

@Brandieteaches People always ask why I care so much about alternative education.
Because Iโve seen students everyone gave up on become graduates.
Iโve seen teen parents become college students.
Iโve seen hopeless become hopeful.
Help me keep building that space. ๐

Today's students are digital natives, but being comfortable with technology doesn't always mean they know how to use it safely or effectively. As a school social worker, we must promote digital citizenship, healthy habits, & meaningful connections. #SchoolSocialWork#LJTECHi3
@Amanda664789867 School social work isnโt just crisis intervention.
Itโs food when a student hasnโt eaten.
Itโs a safe place during a panic attack.
Itโs helping a teen believe theyโre worth fighting for.
Help me keep showing up for them๐

๐ฌ Most needed items are sour candies or mints. Items like these can assist in a panic attack by distracting the brain.
I took this photo after everyone left.
Most people see an empty room.
I see students who battled trauma, anxiety, grief,& self-doubt, yet kept showing up.
At an alternative school, every diploma tells a story of resilience.
The room is empty.
My heart is full.โค๏ธ

Blessed to be adopted by this amazing educator crew ๐
Even as the school social worker in the bunch, I still got some Teacher Appreciation love from my favorite tech-queens! ๐
Different roles, same mission: our kids. ๐

Raising future social workers hits different when your kids choose to be helpers on their own.
Reading my daughterโs principalโs letter: โShe goes beyond expectationsโฆ contributing meaningfully to those around herโ and โembodiesโฆ service.โ
Thatโs the proof itโs sticking.
โจ๐ Celebrating the heart of La Joya ISD! ๐โจ
Last nightโs Board Meeting honored the incredible individuals who make a difference every day - from campus leadership and our TEA Educator Committee to social workers, educational diagnosticians, athletic trainers, maintenance teams, and more. โค๏ธ
