Our @ValVerdeUSD district-wide network survived when yesterday a fire took out two utility poles near one of our schools.
Great thanks to @CrownCastle for helping us build a robust dark fiber ring, allowing education to remain the focus rather than internet outages.

[Matt Penner @mattpenner]

@SpaceXStarlink is pretty exciting, especially with our students struggling during COVID19 with lack of internet coverage.
@elonmusk, might you help us provide internet to all of our students @ValVerdeUSD? 😉

Hey @johnkrasinski, it's the little unexpected things that bring #SGNsmiles. We pass this SUV everytime my wife, kids and I take our pup out for a walk. Makes me laugh and smile every time. 😉

@katharinemcphee You all gave an absolutely amazing tribute and we were blessed to be a part of it. Thanks for coming out. 🙏🏼

"...it's amazing that #PsychologicalSafety can be created at all, she thinks." and amazing how fast it can be torn down. [Me] We must protect this at all costs. This great snippet is from one of my fav characters, Maxine, in The #UnicornProject by Gene Kim. A MUST read!

@pharding2 @OfficialGenYES Love this topic! Engaging students in real world tech, assisting fellow students and staff, is a truly inspired vision.

@LibbiCITE Awww, thanks so much!!! We love our team!

[Matt Penner @mattpenner]

@CITE_EDU Thanks for sharing! CITE is much of the reason why we are able to do what we do! 😉

It's nice to see additional effort to provide cyber security resources to K12 education. With limited staff where engineers are jacks-of-all-trades we often don't have the budgets for dedicated cyber security professionals/protection. #k12education
