Change comes when all of us step up and play our part in this democracy. By encouraging our young people, like these students from @ChiPubSchools, to start engaging in our civic life today, we’re already creating something better for tomorrow.
Our @Wunderlichlib library assistant is super awesome and creative!! Check out the bulletin board she created to honor the "Wunder Women" of @WunderlichKISD and other historical women in recognition of Women's History Month! Thanks, Mrs. P!!!

Wisdom from Dick Allington: "Too often we have designed reading intervention programs where the students engage in everything but actual reading. That is one reason intervention seldom accelerates reading growth." @DrMaryHoward@DoctorSam7@ERobbPrincipal@vrkimmel@KFelicello

Mrs. G. is ALWAYS willing to meet her students where they are-even on the floor! She facilitated an interesting, relevant book study conversation with them this morning. They enjoyed it, and so did I. @WunderlichKISD
Quick coaching conversations can foster massive impact. In 20 short minutes, I helped 2 Ts transform their lessons for today to make them more purposeful! #IlovewhatIdo
We frequently hear teaching and being an educator is rewarding… it absolutely is. But, it is also hard work.
I know of no rule that says you have to choose one over the other- So, students first and remember teachers first too.
Without committed teachers, nothing works.
