I had the honor of experiencing the superb co-teaching of Mr. Gallus and Ms. Beeninga. Together they have created an engaging and fun learning environment. Every student succeeds in a co-taught class, including those who speak multiple languages.#PondPride#One91
Happy Black History Month @gideon_pond family. We had the chance to take a photo of our superintendent @DrTBattle next to her Black History poster when she came by to read to students. #One91#PondPride#blackhistorymonth2023
We love to see our @gideon_pond teachers share their passion and talents. The school as a whole and our classrooms are community spaces. Our teachers are intentional and they are the BEST! #PondPride
I love my Somali people and language. I'm determined to re-learn my mother tongue since I now recognize and value the benefits of being bilingual. I am fortunate to have the chance to instill confidence in my students so that they can be equally proud of their multilingualism.
Ready to support our @gideon_pond multilingual learners by coteaching with @msbeeninga I ❤️ how she creates community and puts our ML learners in the driver’s seat! “Imagine what we can do if we put ALL that knowledge together!!!”
Our incredible principal @gideon_pond @MrsBuchanan191 has been nothing but a strong & supportive leader. She leads by example and is always present in classrooms, hallways, answering phones in the office, etc. I couldn’t feel more lucky to have her at the helm of our school!
Learn about the incredible, staff-led effort to supply District 191 schools with culturally-appropriate clothing! “We believe that our schools should represent the students we serve & this project is one way to show that.” #FutureReady#CommunityStrong https://t.co/l5d4e3PEXA
