We are excited to welcome Joy Harrison as our new assistant principal! Joy has been teaching at Mimosa for many years and most recently taught 3rd grade dual language immersion. She was also TOTY for the 22-23 school year. @FultonZone5@FultonCoSchools@kathastuart
Some students from my very first third grade class came to visit me. They’re graduating high school and I am so proud of who they are and what they have achieved. They have played an important part of my teaching journey! 🥹 @MimosaManatee@RoswellHighSch@FultonCoSchools
@rebeccasugar One of my third grade students asked me to send you a message. She’s a big fan of your work and loves everything about Steven Universe! She wants to know if there will be new episodes.
@CAMontgomeryEDU@GSUEdLead R6: You make an important point about not necessarily being the loudest or flashiest. Authentic equity must be inherent in the way we live and work. #GSUEdLead
@GSUEdLead A6: Work with my colleagues to build an awareness around the systems, practices, and narratives that are in place that are perpetuating disparities in outcomes for our students. #GSUEdLead
@j3schoeb@GSUEdLead R5: Leaders must think before they act, especially when it comes to equity. They need to resist the pressure to act quickly so that the action is actually thoughtful and effective. #GSUEdlead
@GSUEdLead A5: Understanding and breaking down the complexity of equity. We must commit to building our capacity to teach the whole student in an equitable way. This will consist of conversations with lots of listening, and detailed plans with lots of reflection. #GSUEdLead
@twallmyers@GSUEdLead R4: That self-reflection also makes you a better leader and more able to speak about equity from a vulnerable, open space. Other people will trust you if you have done the work yourself. #GSUEdLead
@GSUEdLead A4: Make space to reflect and self-assess regularly. Meet with a trusted set of colleagues with the same goals of committing to equity. #GSUEdLead
@amaya_dian@GSUEdLead R3: I agree with the lack of follow-up. This also relates to a lot of trainings and professional development sessions that teachers and leaders receive. #GSUEdLead
@LakeshaLWallace@GSUEdLead R1: "Creating a culture of equity" is so important. I agree that it's an ongoing process and requires a lot of intentional effort from all. #GSUEdLead
@GSUEdLead A2: This means that equity must not be just a set of action steps done once every so often. It’s a mindset, a posture, a reflection, a call to action. #GSUEdLead
