A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to the @concord_high Jazz 1 for taking 1st and Jazz Combo for taking 3rd in their respective divisions at the Folsom Jazz Festival. If you haven't heard them, you are missing out.
My @DonorsChoose goodies came yesterday - warm gloves and socks for these cold winter days. My @elmontebulldogs were so excited this morning! And a student brought in donut holes for the class. @MtDiabloUSD
@ddmeyer I've stopped giving homework, other than reading each night. With many parents working into the night, overnight, or two jobs, I want their family time to be about family, not schoolwork.
@DrBradJohnson Just once, I'd like to be asked what I need re: professional development instead of being forced to attend trainings that demean my colleagues and me. And I'd like that training to be taught by Ts who are still teaching. Not admins who are far removed from Ss and the classroom.
The @concord_high Marching Band performed at the Walnut Creek Holiday Parade of Lights tonight and all around Broadway Plaza. These kids are amazing! They even performed inside Macy's (with permission of course.)
Holy heck. Listening to the @concord_high@CPHSfalcons@NorthgateHS @YgnacioValley at the @MtDiabloUSD Jazz Festival. You forget these kids are teenagers. Great night. Amazing music. Such talented young people.
