What a silly & dangerous false narrative to promote. #cdnpoli system is one of the strongest democracies & as a fricking REPRESENTATIVE of it, you ought to know this. Your own premier @ABDanielleSmith wasn’t an MLA when she became premier & had to run in a by-election. #abpoli

So true!

[The Principal’s Office @educator4ever36]

Our children have lost attention stamina. They don’t even have it for recreational activities. Parents - at birth, please incorporate time into your child’s life to develop attention stamina. Let them be bored for a day. Have them create things from their own mind. Let them outside to play with nothing but basic toys. Teachers see the impact of screen based childhoods every day and it’s not good. At all.

A teacher emailed today sharing a story of noticing a student wiping tears from their eyes. When she checked in with the student their response was, “this book, is just so…” 💕

Happy spring break to all my teachers and ears who work so hard for kids out there every. Single. Day. #Springbreak #bed #bcedchat

So many young men in schools are affected negatively by Andrew tate.

Any suggestions on having tough conversations about misogyny with these lads?

Happy holidays to all of my teacher friends! Get some rest on this well-deserved break!

#classic. A screenshot. The more I use BC’s Curriculum, the more I love it. ❤️💯 So much potential. So much creativity. I hope others feel the same way. #EDUC394

I work with and admire (up close and from afar) so many educators who would make great school trustees and city councilors.

I'm hoping some them run in upcoming elections! #bced #bcedchat

@reddyforchange @OneCityVan @VSB39 is lucky to have you! Woo-hoo!

@NeeshaInBC @BCGreens @bcndp @AnjaliApp Some food for thought

[Karen Beckindale @KBeckindale]

A number of my colleagues have approached me about running for school trustee

I just might do it on the next round!
