Yesterday was a wonderful day at MBSH as we hosted our Inaugural Mental Health Expo; providing our student body, faculty and staff a day of engagement and resources for best practices for social emotional wellness! @MDCPSNorth@verenanro@AlayonSally
In our ongoing quest for mentors who model grace, grit, and tenacity, our years have been enriched through the life of Lady Cicely Tyson.
May her legacy become an ensign in the hearts of us who acknowledge that our circumstances do not dictate the roles that we enact in life.
“The winners in life think constantly in terms of I can, I will, and I am. Losers, on the other hand, concentrate their waking thoughts on what they should have or would have done, or what they can’t do.” ~ Dennis Waitley #winningmindset
We need black men in education as teachers, mentors, and father figures. We make great teachers, mentors, and are father figures to countless children. This is a black men in education appreciation post. Feel free to express your appreciation of black men out loud. @BMeCommunity

The mentoring relationship is key to retaining @MDCPS new teachers! @mdcps_profdev Instructional Mentors provide emotional support, offer specific feedback, promote reflection and can help new teachers get over those first-year hurdles. @MiamiSup @MiamiCAO@jldotres@MAlbaNunez
Monday’s Professional development with @educationhall from ASCD was refreshing! Thank you for reminding me to get back to, and stay in the mindset that our kids have NEEDS not deficits, (my FB memory reinforced this retaught lesson)! #MindsetMatters
Dear mentors, coaches & teachers:
You don't prepare pupils for a "tough" world by replicating those same systems of oppression in your classroom.
Your work is to help us to name injustice, understand its systemic nature & to labor alongside us as we dismantle it. ❤️✊🏾🙂
@AkilahLaster@millertime_6 So important! Lol. I hope I make my former students as proud as they make me, they always made me strive to be the best version of myself!
