I keep waiting for the education pendulum to swing back in favor of public education and students. Been waiting 27 years. Done in 4 more. Maybe once I’m gone. #publiceducation

I’m having a hard time with the X-verse. No matter what someone posts, there are trolls and really harsh comments—no matter what. I’ve never favored censorship until I’ve seen what people are like once they feel there are no consequences for what they say. #kindnessmatters

Sad news in faculty meeting today. More than 100 books banned in schools statewide, so far, incl. Maya Angelou's "I Know Why the Caged Bird Signs" and "The Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini. Five books have been pulled from my district's APPROVED novels list. So far. #uted #utpol

Eclipse was very cloudy here in Texas, but got a tiny glimpse of totality and a couple cool shots like this one. #Solareclipe2024

Made it safely down to Texas for an eclipse adventure! Have had a lot of fun so far, visited NASA, and may end up just seeing some dark clouds, but a plan 7 years in the making is still worth the effort! #Eclipse2024

In case anyone was wondering, the bridge collapse in Baltimore was NOT caused by DEI. #utpol

Trying a contest! At least voting for me you’ll know you’re getting someone who really works hard and cares about the impact she’s having!

No PD available to teachers in @GraniteSchools , only 3 sick days left due to Covid in January, using my personal days to see the solar eclipse and my son’s graduation. So I’m sad to miss #UCET24 and everything else that might come along this year.😑

Finally, I get to talk about something they want teachers to do that I basically agree with! #uted #utpol #hsg_ut

Learning doesn’t have to be boring. Playing Battleship by coding robots to roll to the spot where you placed your “ship”. #STEMeducation @GraniteSchools

Science (in this case water cycle wind socks and stained glass cells) can brighten up the grayest day! #steam @GraniteSchools
