@Matthewnkc74 I hope this school year is going well. I’m sure you’re still spreading your happiness & smile through the halls of New Mark!

Not every opportunity is right for you.

Lets normalize telling people we are proud of them for taking the journey, not just when they reach the destination.

Life will always seem heavy when you’re carrying unnecessary weight. Let go of everything that’s weighing you down.

[Trent Shelton @TrentShelton]

Never judge a person’s path if you never took the time to understand their journey.

You know the 4:1 ratio we were taught when providing feedback (positive:negative)?

This is just a reminder that this same principle is applicable in your interactions with adults.

From leadership to friendships to service. #bekind #wordsmatter

We live in a culture of broad strokes. Don't be lazy and make assumptions about people.

Ask about their story.
Then listen. Really listen.
Be humble. Be teachable.
Be human. Be a good neighbor.

@Vanhorn_falcons Congrats lady! Well deserved ❤️

[Chelsea McDowell @SchoolPsyChels]

Ohhhh @nasponline you saving some of the best for last I see!

I’m still here Day #4 of #NASP2021 and can’t WAIT for @cmonique1023 to be in my living room with me 😂 and share some social justice practices ❤️ #PDinmyPJs

[Chelsea McDowell @SchoolPsyChels]

These dogs are wiped out from the information overload at #NASP2021, but personally I am excited to hear @SchoolPsychLife. @LessonsForSEL is such a powerful tool, so no doubt his talk will carry that same energy ❤️

Thank you @nasponline for another day of phenomenal speakers!

[Chelsea McDowell @SchoolPsyChels]

We have safe spaces for kids. We need brave spaces for adults to have hard conversations about how to support kids. #NASP2021 #NASPadvocates @nasponline
