Even on rainy days, teachers believe in their students, offering them moments to shine between the raindrops. Every day is a chance for growth, and every storm brings the opportunity for strength. ☔️ #FCPSisSpecial #FCPSProud @FCPSMaryland @MiddletownElem

On my walk today, I spotted this little friend getting breakfast and exercising. It reminded me of a quote: 'Exercise is the key not only to physical health but to peace of mind.' – Nelson Mandela.

A few months ago we were able to spread awareness in our community & from that now have wonderful support for Adapted PE from the Frederick Civitan. Thanks to Jim Marker, Civitan member, for making our APE program the recipient of a $500 grant PLUS starting a new tradition- “APE Build Day.” Members will be joining together next month to build #AdaptedClimbingWall for our Ss. @FCPSMaryland @TroyDKeller @RegaliaFCPS @K_Turner_FCPS @ShannonPisculli @BGHEPE @KathyGullCII

Love this! Excited for the upcoming school year! Let's tap into the power of collective efficacy! #Teamwork #Education #CollectiveEfficacy

"We are not looking for students to have one great year or one great teacher, we want students to have great teachers and profound success every year of their school career, and we can only accomplish this through transformative teams who tap into the power of collective efficacy."
