I’m often tempted to finish my days thinking I haven’t done much, or created enough. That’s false, because sometimes, just making it through the day is enough.

Hey Bobcat families. Looking for something to do? Take your kids to the museum- virtually! https://t.co/cnR5Qx8W1O

Notice how you’re only thinking about what’s important now? You’re focused on the things and the people that matter, not the haters, the fakeness of social media, or the little things that used to bug you.

Even after all of this is over, keep that same energy.

[Chere Swearingen @wrightchere]

I love this guy.

President Trump today at the White House said to me: “Be nice. Don't be threatening.”

I’m not the first human being, woman, black person or journalist to be told that while doing a job.

My take: Be steady. Stay focused. Remember your purpose. And, always press forward.

Yesterday we made leprechaun traps with our first grade buddies. A little light in our day. Hoping everyone has a happy, healthy, safe spring break❤️

It’s time to celebrate National School Social Work Week – March 2-8, 2020. Center School District is fortunate to have the support of 8 school social workers and each of them is committed to making a difference in the Center community. #ThankYou #SchoolSocialWorkers #CenterSD

Being a Black teacher and teaching Black kids in 2020 is being aware of how systems purposely don’t have their best interest at heart, but then also being expected to uphold them in order to stay employed.

It’s tough.

Sometimes you’re not just a teacher. Sometimes you have to figure out a way to clean silly putty off a @tkelce jersey for a first grader because the @Chiefs are lifeeee❤️🏈
