It looks like a crowd for P3 EdCamp today! The Prichard Committee Engagement Team is set to lead two sessions on family-school partnerships. When parents are involved, engaged, and seen as equal partners in education, students succeed! #KyFamEngage

[P3 Principal Team @P3KyKDE]

I’m not saying that these snow days are good for P3 EdCamp, but I am saying that we’ve had 158 school leaders register TODAY! That brings about total to over 500 participants!!!

Visit the P3 website if you’d like to attend EdCamp tomorrow. There is still room for you!

I'm swapping resolutions for these simple tips. Everything else falls into place if I can master this. #2024HereWeGo

As winter break comes to an end, we could all use some extra self-care.

Parents, teachers, & staff can all use these tips as we head back to school (Bonus: These also work as great #NewYearResolutions!).
