The minds of our @bethel1964 teachers are being expanded by @hellojenjones on this Tuesday. Thank you Jen!

A reading workshop minilesson should be taught with the sense of urgency that the coach just called a timeout with 2 seconds left on the board to win the championship. @hellojenjones @sblakeney3 @cardinal_mj

[Jake Gambrell @jag7585]

To be deemed essential & then bypassed for the vaccine when required to be exposed daily to 100s of individuals is disrespectful and devaluing.
I am beyond disappointed in @govhenrymcmaster @Molly_Spearman @EducationSC @scdhec SC can do better! #VaxForEdNow

Make sure your circle includes people who will tell you....

- No
- Are you sure?
- Have you thought about it this way?
- That was inappropriate

We have to have people in our circles who will push back, challenge, and therein make us better. All from a place of love.

In our latest New Teacher blog post, Dawn Mitchell discusses 10 Tips for avoiding teacher burnout. In today's challenging environment, veteran and induction teachers alike would benefit from this read.

Thankful for the work of @gcssupt and the board @chucksaylors putting the safety of students, families, and staff first while developing a reopening plan for all students to learn in appropriate, flexible models during these challenging times.

[RCPEP @RichCoPEP]

Well said.

Disheartening to watch the governor use the very students the state has been failing for years as the reason to force local districts to re-open in a way that they believe is not in the best interests of those very students. Our teachers and students deserve better.
