And the 2021 Virginia Teacher of the Year is Anthony Swann from Region 6!!! CONGRATULATIONS! We are so excited for you to represent educators across the Commonwealth this year. #VATOY2021
Toured an elementary and the middle and high school complex in Louisa County yesterday where they started a hybrid model with a mix of in person and virtual instruction last week. I’m so impressed with their thoughtful strategies about returning to school. @TeamLCPS
You cannot imagine the stress that local decision-makers are facing as they work on school plans. Even as we all advocate for what is best for students AND staff, please send them a note of encouragement, it will mean everything esp. as pressure reached new heights this week.
Congratulations to the 2020 Exemplar Award winners! 447 schools and 6 school divisions were recognized by the Board of Education for high student achievement, continuous improvement or innovative practices during 2018-2019 and prior years: https://t.co/alqpONA9oY
Here is the Governor’s Return to School plan included in the press release. It includes the detailed phase document I referenced in the press conference. I’ll post other important links here later this evening as well.

I could not be more proud to be a part of the #fcpsva community. What @BMESMustangs teachers are doing is amazing work for the kiddos to continue their learning. Technology is at the forefront of the work and it’s truly inspiring to behold. #teachersrock https://t.co/YTcEjedcTG
Coming soon to all you @BMESMustangs! We are getting into some March Madness style book tournament fun! Couldn’t have done this without the help of everyone who gave me input for their favorite stories AND these awesome kiddos who helped me build the biggest visual EVER! #fcpsva
The big kids aren’t the only ones making a name for themselves as YouTube stars! These 1st graders are creating a collection of stories to put out on our fb page to get us through weekends (and through the summer). Excited to get this new project started! #fcpsva@BMESMustangs
Learning about the future of our school division and educating our children to become strong problem solvers, citizens and team players. #vision25#fcpsva

Mr. John Paul Martin from #drybridgefurniturecompany taught us a lot today - the history of the trebuchet, the simple machines and math involved in making it work, and the engineering design process he used to remake it until he got it right. #fcpsva#punkinchunkin@BMESMustangs
Are students were so happy to receive instruction from these amazing hi school PBL learnerS! Great collaboration, presentation, and interactive activities. #fcpsva
