@RickJetter I, too, would love this. Then I thought, why am I allowing myself to be “trapped” by my devices! I am a technophile but I need a break. Well, guess what I can take a break! I think…..
It is an anxious time - for many reasons. But I know in my heart of hearts that we have to get our students back in front of our teachers! Let’s do this!
P.S. If you’re eligible and you can, PLEASE 🙏🏼 get vaccinated - for yourself & ALL (especially children under 12) who can’t.
#ThoughtForTheDay We should never stop believing in our youth even when they give us every reason to do so. Oftentimes they’re just testing the adults who from their experience have quit on them in the past. Let’s not let their behavior impact our attitudes about them. #Culturize

9 years ago, I landed at JFK Airport and came to the US for the first time from Trinidad & Tobago as an undergraduate. This year, I officially graduated with my PhD in Chemical Engineering! Grateful for the journey and looking forward to the future #BlackInSTEM#BlackGirlMagic

If there's ever a time that we need to focus on our students mental & emotional health, it is now. Think of everything they've endured already & its only June! Now is not the time to cut The Arts, PE, counselors! Congress needs to step up & support our schools, teachers & kids!
