@LHSMrsGum @WeAreTeachers That’s actually my district’s policy. A lot of people take offense to it and see it as a participation trophy, but I’m with you.

[Seneca Ridge Middle @SRMS_Official]

We will miss you! Also, all of those things are what make this the most beautiful campus in Loudoun😁

[Lacey Conrad @MsLConrad]

Got to see some of my students at locker distribution, had a (socially distanced) picnic with my fave teacher pals, and saw a parliament of owls in the woods while leaving (a parent and 3 chicks!!!). A nice end to a bananas school year. @SRMS_Official

@teachkate @WeAreTeachers It can’t just be the teachers of color talking about this! Unfortunately, too many people are unwilling to listen and label them as being too “militant” or “controversial” or whatever other names uneducated white folks call people of color who discuss race.

Everyone expresses things differently. Here’s a real and raw personal piece I wrote this morning called The Risk, Reward, and {Sometimes} Retribution for Being an Educated Black Family in America.

@ifindkarma @lmnysf @ndrew_lawrence They would love nothing more than for democratic leaders to end lockdown and then blame them for causing a second wave for ending too early.

Make sure you read all of it!

This made me laugh out loud.

Super happy I have a gym in my garage! Cardio day using ⁦@Crossrope⁩ ropes and app. ⁦@SRMS_Official⁩ #QUARANTINEworkout

[Peyton Anderson @SquaredStoic]

School is NOT closed for the year. The building is. If you listen closely you can hear the hum of hard working teachers, administrators, and support staff preparing to save the day in ways and means never seen before. Yes, we are brokenhearted, but these broken hearts will lead

[Lacey Conrad @MsLConrad]

Thank goodness someone got a good group photo. The girls did not stay still for very long! ⁦@SRMS_Official⁩

[Lacey Conrad @MsLConrad]

Panelists Gretchen Hamm, Hayley Skarpura (Olympic gold medalist!), Deanna Robinson, and Dr. Robin West (team physician to the Redskins and the Nats!).

[Lacey Conrad @MsLConrad]

At the Aspire summit for girls. Wonderful, empowering women for our girls to look up to. ⁦@SRMS_Official⁩

[Lacey Conrad @MsLConrad]

The girls discussed what a good influencer is vs. a negative influence, and they got the opportunity to do a quick workout with Deanna Robinson on Redskins practice field!

[Lacey Conrad @MsLConrad]

Using social media for a positive influence. ⁦@SRMS_Official⁩

If you are so inclined, teachers are a crafty bunch and being able to access material from others goes a long way to creating amazing lesson plans! https://t.co/wWwX2yasH0

Fun times in science class. ⁦@SRMS_Official⁩

Is there any other way? 🙅 #middleschool #goodvibesonly

Check on your teacher friends.

Many of us are not OK.
We carry kids hearts in our hearts. We carry their stories. We carry disappointment about that lesson that didn’t go well. We carry guilt over how we handled a situation.
We need teachers to be encouraged, loved, and fueled.
