Friday will be my last day at @Region12. Facing some unexpected reductions in grant funds, my director had to make some tough choices. I am excited to be returning to campus life. I have missed it more than I thought I would and canβt wait to join the Admin Team at CCHS Monday.π
Congratulations to Dr. Loubiere on her selection as the new Assistant Principal of Copperas Cove High School. In addition, she published a case study in AESA alongside Ms. Karen Mayton.#TeachOnPurpose#LiveOnPurpose

Supporting our youth and young adults across the region, who are bravely sharing their stories of homelessness today οΏΌat the Capitol. So proud of them.
Excited to be training in @cliftonisd today learning all things McKinney-Vento to be the best support for children and youth experiencing homelessness. #LetsBeGreatTogether
Federal Programs staff at @Region12 had the honor of collaborating with @copperascoveisd to deliver coats, school supplies and more to over 60 families experiencing homelessness today. Do you know students in need today? There are resources available. Reach out to us for help.
It was an honor to collaborate with The Cove in Waco on ideas for meeting the needs of youth experiencing homelessness. If you are a student experiencing homelessness, reach out to Region 12 for assistance getting connected to great wraparound services like Cove. Help is here.
Our State Representative for all things McKinney-Vento, Cal Lopez, gave all her regional liaisons state pins today. This woman is brilliant, kind, and generous. We really enjoy getting to work with her. #naehcy2022
Today I had the honor of meeting Deputy Under Secretary of the USDA, Stacy Dean, as we work to end hunger and poverty at the @BaylorCoHP. Her Dr. Hanks Inaugural Address for the Summit was both sobering and inspiring. Thank you @R12McK_Vento for this opportunity.
Our Federal Programs Road Trip continues. Watch this vid to see the 10 districts we visited today. The best part about the journey? Seeing the sea of maroon and white across Region 12 in support of #UvaldeStrong!
So many districts! The Road Trip continues! Watch the vid below to catch a glimpse of the many HEROES protecting the rights of and advocating for students experiencing homelessness, placed in foster care, etc. Our Federal Programs team is honored to meet each one of you!
Today was⦠BEAUTIFUL! It is an honor to travel Region 12 and meet the heroes doing the real work every day. Every district is so unique. I am thoroughly looking forward to the rest of this road trip.
