@mkrai20 @sd43bc Congratulations Manjit! Centennial is lucky to have you as their principal. 😃

[Melody Ferrer @MmeFerrer]

Many thanks to @luudisk for presenting to Coquitlam educators at our Indigenous Focused Pro-D day. T'oyaxsut 'nüün!

[Bryn Morgan Williams @brynmw]

Great morning of learning with Jo Chrona at our Indigenous Professional Learning Day with half the teaching/admin staff of #sd43

@lisarinke @PADSdogs It’s a tough choice but I like the one with the blackboard in the background to show she’s at school.

[Todd Clerkson @TClerkson]

Thanks to the Squamish Ocean Canoe Family for educating our students today! #NationalIndigenousHistoryMonth

[Melody Ferrer @MmeFerrer]

Thank you @mightbeautistic for this great thread - I hope many people read it and gain more acceptance of autistic traits.

[Melody Ferrer @MmeFerrer]

It was great that all of our English First Peoples 11 classes got to see Th’owxiya by Kwantlen First Nation writer @DandurandJoseph and have an educational workshop with @AxisTheatreCo afterwards. @sd43bc @TClerkson @rciolfi

[Mark David Smith 🇺🇦--WEIRD SISTERS #3 out now! @marksmithbooks]

Enjoyed bringing @AxisTheatreCo into @HWSSevents for their production of #Thowxiya, by @DandurandJoseph. 170+ kids thoroughly engaged in a #kwantlen story. Plus, Joseph gave me a copy of his Griffin-award-winning poetry! Great day!

Thank you @luudisk for posting this important video. Our staff discussed standard 9 at our Pro-D last week. It’s a learning journey that I’m very excited to be a part of.

Thank you @luudisk for another amazing workshop! Looking forward to tomorrow’s session on the @FNESC Math / Science Teacher Resource Guides!

[Jo Chrona @luudisk]

Day 4 of @FNESC Summer Institute. Today - BC First Peoples 12 TRG (draft). I'll miss thoughtful passionate educators who've I had the privilege of working with this and last week. These are folks who're also embodying the 9th Professional Standard for BC educators. 😊 #bced

[Melody Ferrer @MmeFerrer]

Very grateful for the @FNESC English First Peoples workshop today and all the amazing resources provided to participants. Many thanks to @luudisk for her inspirational leadership and advocacy.

[Melody Ferrer @MmeFerrer]

So proud of our student, Sarah Abdellatif! @TClerkson

[School District 43 @sd43bc]

👏Congratulations to Trades student Sarah who represented SD43 at the Skills Canada BC 2022 Competition.

🚗Sarah competed against other Youth Train in Trades (secondary) program students across BC and finished third place in the Auto Collision and Refinish category.

@TClerkson Happy National Principal's Day!

[Gina Niccoli-Moen @NiccoliMoen]

On #NationalPVPDay, I want to give a special shout out to #BurnabySchools principals and vice-principals for their superstar leadership! I am especially grateful for all you do in these continuously challenging times. #Gratitude

[Melody Ferrer @MmeFerrer]

Thank you @luudisk for explaining how “Indigenous education is not multicultural education.”

@mykola As the mother of an autistic daughter, I consider myself a strong ally #AllisticsForAutistics. As an educator, I do my best to promote #AutismAcceptanceMonth

[Myk is Walking Backwards @mykola]

Here is one thing non-Autistic people can do for #AutismAcceptanceMonth:

Take a moment, take one tweet, and tell the Autistic community that you see us.

Use the #AllisticsForAutistics hashtag.

I will be so grateful to every single person who takes me up on this. Few will.

[Todd Clerkson @TClerkson]

Congratulations Emily for winning the silver medal in baking at the Skills BC 2022 competition!#Kodiaktalent

[Melody Ferrer @MmeFerrer]

I couldn’t agree more, Jo Chrona @luudisk. Thank you for your continued advocacy.

[Jo Chrona @luudisk]

The timeline may feel short to some folks, but it feels long past due for many others. Who loses most when social justice is delayed? Are you using your privilege to support and enable? Or to delay or obstruct?When something is a priority, we find ways to make it happen.

In honour of #AutismAcceptanceMonth I’m posting my daughter’s most recent artwork. Yes, autism presents many challenges for her but also special gifts.
