This one goes out to our @DcLstem faculty aka the family. One of the best things about working at STEM, people here got your back. Always. And for that, I will always be grateful. #thejourney

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

@mrs_pasq Let’s chat about this later.

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

Again I want to extend my gratitude to @bohndrake @InRozLand @cpianoman1 @RabeloJavier @espiritu_tracy for coming into our Public Speaking classes and offering your perspectives, advice and reflective view to our @DcLstem Ss about the interview process. 👍🏻

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

@cliftoncity @RabeloJavier Funny that you say that, some of my colleagues and I were having the same discussion about that today. I know I didn’t have this opportunity growing up but we are fortunate to be a part of this journey and offer this invaluable experience to our Ss.

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

@RabeloJavier Appreciate you coming in today and offering our students your own expertise about this important topic.

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

@bohndrake Please do and feel free to share your perspective on the interview process or offer feedback to both the committees and interviewees. I am excited for you to join us!

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

All are welcome tomorrow to join the discussion. B1 and B2, Room S202. Excited about our Interview Unit. Our PS #STEM Ss’ will be under the spotlight. Mock Interviews across career fields. Let’s put our skills to the test, reflect and land that next job! #thejourney

It is always a pleasure to honor students for doing the right thing, without regard to whether it “counts.”

@mrs_pasq Enjoy!

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

Behind the scenes! Our Public Speaking Ss are hard at work today with their News Anchor Projects. Persistence, physical stamina, objectivity, improvisation, teamwork, social media expertise, professionalism...we are having fun! #dclstem

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

Gods peace and comfort to those who daily feel the pain of loss from an act of cowardice that produced supernatural resilience in many.

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

All credit goes to our dedicated and passionate colleague @mrs_pasq for putting together an engaging & effective virtual augmentation activity for our @DcLstem Ss using the @MetaverseApp. @mrs_pasq you make us better. TY for sharing your vision.

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

@DcLstem Will try this! Thanks for sharing.

After our Film Production 101 crash course on camera angles, filters and color, voiceover, 🎵 and sound effects, Ss are finding creative way to produce & direct their Social Injustice PSA’s. Can’t wait to watch the final products on the big screen! #PSA #socialinjustice

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

@ELA_STEM_TEACHr It’s always great to collaborate with you! Glad it worked out.

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

Ss used modification to implement changes to our middle ground debates. Looking forward to see this play out. “Be calm in arguing for fierceness makes error a fault and truth discourtesy” (Herbert).

[Mr.Okol @jerzy_okol]

Middle ground debates a.k.a home to many different factors, such as, listening, feeling empathy, understanding, and consideration = fundamental aspects of arguments. We are achieving our goals. Proud of you ladies and gents. #thejourney

Day made: when a students walks in class saying, “ We’re learning about the Renaissance, so look what socks I wore.” #awesomeStudents

John Wooden, coached basketball at UCLA for a living, but his CALLING was to impact people. With all those national championships, he was found going into the cupboard, grabbing a broom & sweeping his own gym floor. You want to make an impact? Find your broom. #perspective
