@TeresaSeo2 @AbbotsfordSD Beautiful artwork!

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]

@Lovetoteachvp @DaveKandalElem I love this idea!! 👏👏

[Jamie Beck @JamieBeck77]

This is a fantastic resource! It’s one thing to recommend proficiency sequences, it’s another level to see the process behind creating one #abbyschools

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]

When your well-loved VP leaves, the whole school @ATMSSabres comes out to give her a rousing standing ovation! @jbennato you lead with kindness, care, and compassion. What a legacy you’ve left at ATMS. You will be missed by your Sabre family! 💙 #AbbySchools

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]

Thank you @NeetuGarcha from @GlobalBC for inspiring @ATMSSabres and reminding us that authentic pronunciation of a person’s name is an important way that we can honour heritage, identity and culture. #AbbySchools #equitybackpack

[Jas Gill @JGillmpsd]

Great to bring multiple faces @AbbotsfordSD for final full version of Equity for Humanity. https://t.co/omgtrWlWPJ
As stated to me "the fire has been lit" I hope we can continue to work together to ensure the flame does not burn out. @rickhansenss @bcedchat help share the video

This band-aid art, part of the #equitybackpack shared by ⁦@nerlapsidhu⁩, is extremely powerful. This 12 year old student is changing the narrative through art.

[ATMS @ATMSSabres]

Students in @wilmsja class are learning about empathy, identity, equity and inclusion through @nerlapsidhu’s Equity Backpack Project. #wordsthatheal #antiracism #bandaidart #crayolacoloursoftheworld

Thank you @mstoneyart for sharing your feather art. Students at ATMS used colour, like you suggested, and made promise statements, actions statements and reflections on the backs of your feathers. #strength #healing #215children @wilmsja @mireillestraff

[ATMS @ATMSSabres]

This made our day too! 🙌 We have a future Police Officer in the Sabre family! @CstMarcusDyck

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]

Yes! And as a follow up to @ATMSSabres student presentation on gang violence, we invited Amy @AbbotsfordRJ to lead a circle discussion on grooming for gangs & sexual exploitation. Necessary conversations between our youth and caring adults. Student voice is powerful.

[Jennifer Bennato @jbennato]

Credibility is with the students. I’m very proud of our students for sharing their voice and standing up to these social justice issues. Their voices are making a difference. The ripple effect is happening - in our @ATMSSabres classrooms and beyond. @AbbotsfordSD

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]

This is reading comprehension of info texts in middle. Making rich, meaningful inferences by paying attn to subtitles. Necessary skills all sts need with explicit rdg instruction. Using SS content for this work. Win-win! 🙌#comprehensiontoolkit

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]

@AbbotsfordRJ @ATMSSabres @AbbotsfordSD @ATMSSabres you did us proud! Thank you for diving into important issues and leading necessary conversations in our school. Some amazing leaders in our midst!

[Billy Wilms @YaleSportAcadmy]

@jjhorgan @adriandix This is awful. Dr Henry exemplifies what our society needs more of: empathy, wisdom, kindness and calmness! Come on BC let’s stand together and support someone who has our best interests at heart!

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]

💯So proud of my hubby and his incredible passion and work ethic. They have one amazing leadership team @YaleSportAcadmy

[Gino Bondi @gmbondi]

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]

Village school in Pena Blanca, Guatemala where Indigenous Mayan teens, on scholarships, teach Saturday tutorial classes to kids in their village. Changing the narrative. All children can learn when given the opportunity.#formaguatemala #solutiontree @ATMSSabres

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]

@jbennato Yes!

[Julie Wilms @wilmsja]
