This. ❤️

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

On a day for the history books, @TheAmandaGorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."

[Jann “stop live horse export” Arden @jannarden]

I’ve watched this 3 times already. What a dignified and steady voice that needs to be amplified and lifted for all to hear. @TheAmandaGorman

“We just did what we think everyone should do when someone needs help.”

Here's the #heartwarming story of 3 Syrian Canadians who teamed up with @sd61schools teachers & staff to save a life during an opioid overdose. #yyj #heroes

[Del Manak @ChiefManak]

Well deserved @vicpdcanada Civic Service Awards given to 3 @vichighsd61 students who intervened & saved an ex-student who was overdosing in a bathroom stall (Dec 2019). Vic High staff came to the rescue with Naloxone. Team effort worthy of praise & recognition. @sd61schools

[Sara Reside @snreside]

So proud of these Vic High students 🖤💛

[Shelley Green @shelleygreen61]

Vic PD honouring our courageous students from Vic High! They saved a life-so proud of our Amazing students!

Grad 2021 Spirit Week. My fave was dress-like-a-teacher day. #wearevichigh

[Greater Victoria School District @sd61schools]

The Vic High seismic project is advancing with site preparation, demolition and asbestos abatement. Crews are setting aside building materials to preserve for future use. Check out the items being catalogued in the gymnasium to be repurposed in the upgraded school. #sd61learn

New year. New building. New lanyards. #wearevichigh

@trev_mackenzie I was already so happy that my kid is going to be in your class this year but then I saw this and it made me feel incredibly grateful for you and for our amazing community! Start with compassion and go from there. ❤️

[Sara Reside @snreside]

So happy to be back at work with students even with the unique challenges of COVID, a not quite ready building, and a whole new schedule to navigate. Start with compassion and go from there.

[Dr. Jody Carrington • Psychologist @DrJCarrington]

Educators worry about safety while designing a new way to deliver their craft. Leaders know there’s a need for direction. Parents must navigate safety without comparing themselves to other parents. Although our world is different, relationship and kindness remain constant.

Went out in public yesterday and saw two of my 2020 grad babies. Brought such a sparkle to my day.

Was asked again if 'White' people can write stories with Indigenous characters. I said yes. Many of my stories include non-Native people. In Canada, we all go in and out of each other's life. That's real. But-pay attention- I do not write from their perspective. Big difference

[Brené Brown @BreneBrown]

When I find myself in tough conversations,
when I am being held accountable,
when I am called to unlearn, relearn, or just learn —
This is my mantra.

It’s been a game-changer.
Less armor. More learning.

[Sara Reside @snreside]

@TraceyLindberg Congratulations! I came to Vic 20 years ago to do a degree and haven’t left yet. This is the most beautiful land to live on.

[Ibram X. Kendi @ibramxk]

I reread this speech by Douglass after replacing slavery with racism, anti-slavery with antiracism, slaveholder with racist, and slave with Black person.

The speech came alive and spoke to what we should be feeling today. It gave me chills in its enduring power.
