Walk-a-thon was a HUGE success! Thanks to all the parent volunteers, staff, and the Mt. Si drum line for putting on such a fun event for our panthers!

“Roughly half of American school children have experienced at least some form of trauma — from neglect, to abuse, to violence. In response, educators often find themselves having to take on the role of counselors, supporting the emotional healing of their students...”

[MindShift @MindShiftKQED]

Educators may recognize the cumulative stressors that they face, but they don't always realize that their symptoms are a common reaction to working with traumatized children — and that these symptoms have a name. @jessica_lander @UKnowHGSE https://t.co/DRdz8kdEfO

One of the best TEDTalks around.

"Every child deserves a champion, an adult who will never give up on them. Is this job tough? You betcha. But it is not impossible. We're educators. We're born to make a difference." #WorldTeachersDay

❤️ this! Sometimes we all need to remind ourselves of this and reframe our mindset.

Math is Rad! Ms. Geel at NBE is working to reshape the thinking of the students in her intervention. Power of positive thinking #svsdempowered

The platform we have on Twitter is not nearly as important as the platform we will have at work tomorrow. It’s good to say nice things on social media; it’s even better to say nice things to the person right in front of you.

For all my NBES teachers...

"There's no one way to be a great teacher. You are enough."

During the first few weeks of school all students participated in Expectation Stations. The appropriate and desired behaviors were practiced across the common school settings such as classrooms, hallways, bathrooms, lunchroom, playground, and on the bus. #SVSDEmpowered

Hear Tolkien read from The Hobbit, published on this day in 1937, in rare audio from his first encounter with a tape recorder https://t.co/yYvhJwcUPy

What does being a '#math person' really mean? How teachers can help every student feel prepared (and excited) to tackle new math concepts👇🏻

Excellent read, not only for parents, but for educators. Give it a read or a listen on Audible (which is how I squeeze in some extra learning during my commute). #SVSDEmpowered

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Lesson plans are important, and pedagogy matters... but some of the most important work of teachers, might not be captured by a plan. When teachers encourage, support, inspire, care about, and connect with their students... they are engaged in work that transcends the “plan.”

[Stephanie Shepherd @NBES_Principal]

These ladies right here... they are my ultimate team. Stepping in and stepping up without being asked, no matter the situation. Our school runs smoothly because of their daily efforts and I appreciate them beyond measure. #SVSDEmpowered

Have you met NBES’ wonderful Counselor, Alicia Moore? She is in constant motion and always ready to lend a helping hand. Here she is at our PBIS Assembly on 9/7, conducting a live Panther Pride ticket raffle for our students. She is a positive role model and huge support!

We never get tired of these wise words from Rita Pierson, captured in this lovely #sketchnote by @sylviaduckworth https://t.co/O1FgUr7Ykz #edchat #relationships #teaching
