Just ran across this tweet again, Henrico you are blessed with a beautiful and bright leader...

[diane kesterson @dkesterson8]

Henrico Schools, you have a winner with Dr. Amy Cashwell. Happy one year anniversary!

[Henrico Schools @HenricoSchools]

If you see @AmyCashwell today, wish her a happy one-year anniversary of being introduced as the new superintendent of Henrico County Public Schools! This was June 5, 2018. To see how far we've come and where we're going, flip through "Amy's Passport": https://t.co/XjdsjUFN2p

Teachers, please read and refrain from telling students "they are smart." It can cause them problems in the future!

It's not uncommon for gifted students to fear failure more than other students because they feel they have more to lose. https://t.co/nCatipybuO

Today are my expectations sessions with MS Ss-not a laundry list of rules, but rather guidance on how we can work together to foster a strong, positive school community. #EmpowermentOverCompliance @BrickellAcademy

Speak up with a positive attitude and remain professional.
Questions are necessary for clarity BUT be careful in HOW you do this. Protect the profession.

Quality education is about relationships. Caring #teachers who understand child development and who are attuned to the children in their care are far more important than many of the measures of quality we use today, says @ErikaChristakis https://t.co/GIXdH2zTMx #edchat

Did you hear? Starting this school year, kindergartners will be getting 100% more recess time and first through fifth graders will receive 50% more recess time! https://t.co/TIIaPtALmz

[diane kesterson @dkesterson8]

@vbschools Hoping this helps and is left to the professionals to decide if and when. Teachers use wisely, know your students!! It's for them.

Educators, #parents and students who frown on kids for using their fingers may be cutting short a greater opportunity: the strengthening of brain networks. https://t.co/HJQky7soPN #edchat #mathchat

The best teachers have three things in common:

1) They are all about the students.

2) They always bring positive energy into the classroom.

3) They are relentless about getting better.

Best Wishes to Marc and Beverly Brown!

[J Paulo Lopes @TheJPLopes]

I’ve served under Marc Brown now for four years. He has been a great boss, a friend, mentor, and a no -anxious presence during difficult times. He has been a true gift to @VAUMC #vaumc19 I’m certain he will be a blessing in Lynchburg!

[diane kesterson @dkesterson8]

Self-compassion is about treating yourself and your shortcomings with kindness, reminding yourself that you are human and -- like all humans -- you are a work in progress @self_compassion @dfkris https://t.co/TDa22xp1qj #edchat #parents #growthmindset
