@TandemFriends School had a great time during opening meetings digging into @WALKTHRUs_5 and sharing ideas about the Learning Model that will anchor our professional growth work this year.

@P_A_Kirschner @C_Hendrick @HealJim Would love to see those questions as well! Thank you!

@NicholsSchool qualified a 2nd team for the @NtlBeeAndBowl Championship by winning the WNY regional this weekend. It was our 2nd regional qualifier win of the season - a first for our program! Nichols has sent teams to the national tournament each year it has been held.

Chas Abdel-Nabi '10 will be making his @Jeopardy debut appearance tomorrow, December 28! Abdel-Nabi was on Mr. Combs' Masterminds team during his time at Nichols and had always dreamed of competing on Jeopardy one day.

The @NicholsSchool A-team ran the table at the Western New York regional qualifier for @NtlBeeAndBowl. We're headed back to D.C. for the national tournament in April!

[NYSAIS Leadership @nysaisELI]

We are proud as punch that our alums from cohort 3, @MrRVCombsJr, and cohort 4, Deirdre Williamson, contributed to the @NYSAIS Community Conversation last night with @ClintSmithIII. Their ever-emerging leadership was on full display!

[Russell Combs @MrRVCombsJr]

The chance to co-host w/ a wonderful colleague a talk with the author of a book we both loved is one of the greatest moments of my 20+ years as a teacher. Clint Smith's How the Word Is Passed is a must read. Many thanks to @mmann15 and @NYSAIS for making this happen.

[NYSAIS @NYSAIS]

We are grateful to @ClintSmithIII for the edification & enlightenment he shared at our Community Conversation. Interviewers @MrRVCombsJr of @NicholsSchool & Deirdre Williamson of @TrinitySchoolNY engaged him in deep conversation. Thanks to all who joined us! #HowTheWordIsPassed.

[Russell Combs @MrRVCombsJr]

Can't wait for this! Endless thanks to the great @NYSAIS folks for this incredible opportunity.

Prof. @DTWillingham - Does this article accurately capture your conclusions? I enjoy your work and will appreciate any insights. Many thanks. https://t.co/vi9wUp6HXa via @psychmag

@DrUrbanTeacher @ballardam Same here. Last Friday one class had one person online - the rest in the room. My next class had more students online than in the room. If love to hear about tech that has worked well for people.

This DBQ explanation from @ThePrincetonRev doesn't quite mesh with what I learned in my @Gilder_Lehrman seminars with @ProfMSinha & @davidwblight1. There actually is a right answer!

[Russell Combs @MrRVCombsJr]

@Realrclark25 5 games in 25 days. How often does that happen and how much does that figure into how slow and old the Steelers look lately? They need to treat the Browns game like a bye week to have any chance to compete in the playoffs.

[Russell Combs @MrRVCombsJr]

The game is the same.

@eldvt and his students at @GonzagaGoodNews sharing their research on slavery and their school's history with my students from @NicholsSchool. @Gilder_Lehrman Summer Seminar teachers building networks and bringing students together in the study of American history.

Our Masterminds team won its first Buffalo Region championship! The team posted a 7-1 tournament record and went 16-4 overall. Congrats also to Michael (league all-star) and Nate (league MVP).
