I know that we would have some major differences in political thinking and ideology. BUT..... does anyone else think @hodakotb is America's sweetheart like I do?!?
Elizabeth Warren just said that banning semi-automatic firearms will work
A few minutes later, Warren says that banning abortion does not work because people can still get abortions on the black market

Admin - ask yourself everyday:
Did I visit classrooms today (if not, what can I do tomorrow to make sure I do?)
Was I encouraging today?
Did I contribute to the positive climate and culture of my school?

@RachelBJernigan My school uses Google too! I've just recently become Google certified. If you are able to get training I definitely would. There was a lot of applications and tools I had no idea Google offered for Education. Really give you a lot of options to implement tech in the classroom
Google for Education offers AMAZING professional development for incorporating google tools and applications into the classroom. If your school has access to Gsuite, I would highly recommend webinars like this one.
