Some days I wonder if all the research I did on school safety really matters. Yesterday it did. It impacted school communities who embraced innovation & welcomed change while collaborating to enhance safety w/ common set of protocols/terminology & research based best practices!

Proud to have grown up in Berkeley and currently represent @BSD87 for the Berkeley Centennial 1924-2024 time capsule closure to be opened in 50 years in 2074! Loved connecting with my former teacher and past neighbors.

25th anniversaryIAASE @IAASEleads appreciate all the speakers, but today @jillmsiler touched my heart. Leading with passion has emotions. It’s ok for leaders to cry, feel inadequate, feel any emotions! Because great leaders lead from the heart❤️ and don’t let fear take control

@NISSAASafety Nov. Mtg
Although first snowfall, those of us that came in person to Dept of Homeland Security Training Institute at College of DuPage, had fun learning about developing EOPs for ALL! Thank you, Stefan Bjes for your wisdom!

[Dr. Nicole Spatafore @Spatty4]

Thank you Warm Coats for Cool Kids supporting our @BSD87 community. And I can’t thank the SEL team and custodial team enough for their support for making this happen. Even during a power outage we made it happen!

[Dr. Nicole Spatafore @Spatty4]

What a proud moment seeing the impact of the years dedicated to research on school safety!Understanding why we’ve been doing drills a certain way is essential in shaping how school leaders can move forward to improve practices for school safety. https://t.co/PNxqqaC5iF

Looking forward to our NISSAA meeting this month to learn more about how to enhance Emergency Operation Plans to be inclusive. @NISSAASafety⁩

Celebrating our principal by surprising her with an all school clap out, we wore red (her fav color) and a potluck in her honor. Thank you for all you do, @pbmd87, and for always bringing out the fun in all of us! @jmbarr929 @JeffersonD87 @BSD87 @AmericanReading

@karamieszanek @BSD87 @JeffersonD87 Great shout out to Principal May and @JeffersonD87 !!

Always an amazing conference today learned about the importance of the recovery aspect of EOPs & how building a safe climate, culture alongside strong community connections is critical to violence prevention & the importance of incorporating this in threat assessment guidance

This is why is it critical to empower students & staff in multi-option response. You can’t plan for everything, but you can build confidence in safe decision-making skills to respond. But we must include tabletops & activities beyond mandated drills.

Save the date! I wish Wall would be here during the day Friday so we can do a visit with students, but they are not sure on the time of delivery yet. Great experience to share with families. I’ll be going with my mom so she can honor her cousin. 🤗
