Memorial Day, a day to remember those who died while serving our country. Thank you for protecting our freedom. Thank you to my Grand Uncle PFC Larry Imamura, who died in France 6 days after this picture was taken. He is a Silver Star Hero who sacrificed himself for his platoon.

[Derek Santos @derekksantos]

From our family to yours, Merry Christmas!

@LeannaAgcaoili @kalihiukaeagles @HIDOE808 @HIDOE808_DrK @FkkCas @mistahkashi @r_ishida12 @ms_k122 The kids especially find it funny when I’m yelling, “I need oxygen.” 🤣

Pg24, “People also choose education with their hearts,” @E_Sheninger. Making connections to @simonsinek’s book,”Start with Why,” the idea of, “People don’t buy what we do, they buy why we do it.” Thinking, how are we sharing our why? As a school do we synthesize everyone’s why?

No syllabus, it’s a go at your own reading pace, sharing of questions, thoughts, moments of “aha,” sharing of the work being done in schools kind of a book study. It’s super free flowing.

@JenniferSueoka @HIDOE808 @eskaneha @HaaheoSchool @smventura .@smventura is an awesome trainer for VL and LISC. This book is a must read for Clarity and using LISC within your classroom. @jtalmarode and @klvandas also explain the LISC process and give examples from classrooms.

[Derek Santos @derekksantos]
