I Crossed Campus with my first elementary student: Braelyn Menz. Braelyn has it together! We synergized on this trip…just one of the habits we discussed.

It was my pleasure to interview Mr. Overby; he planted a lot of trees @BallardSchools and our students sit in the shade of his work every day!
One of many who #ElevateBC!
