🎓📚 There’s something special about being educators while also being parents of two daughters starting a new school year!

My wife and I get to pour into students every day, while watching our own girls grow and learn.

New year. Same prayer: growth, success, and purpose. 🙏🏾

Vocabulary Throwdown at STARBASE Teacher Academy was a hit! 🎯 Inspired by @nicscud, adapted from @jillwebs. Big shoutout to Ms. Webb for recreating the google slides for us to play.

Teachers were highly competitive, so you know students would be all in! 🔥📖
