Would you please help by donating items from this list?

I work at a wonderful community school. We serve around 700 students in grades PreK-6. Every year we provide supplies to kids and families before school starts so EVERY child has the items they need to engage in great learning! More families than ever are in need!

Snow day

As is so often true, @heymrsbond.com says it so well. I’m surrounded by teachers who have trees and stockings and such. I have snowmen and snowflakes. Kids are surrounded by Christmas. I’ve learned my room doesn’t need to include it.

I’m so honored to be a part of this team and to watch us grow and change and improve an incredible conference year after year. I’m continually awed by the dedication of this group of volunteers who share their time and talent all year long.

So long for now #VSTE24 - see you next December! @vste.org

The end of the #VSTE24 conference is such an odd feeling. A year’s worth of work by this incredible group of educators comes together, ensuring we have an amazing experience for more than 1400 attendees and exhibitors, and then… it’s over. The exhaustion and the quiet and stillness sets in @vste.org

I’m Margaret, an elementary assistant principal from Fairfax #vste24

Morning! I think what makes the difference between a group of people & a team is the interdependence - it’s a balance of knowing you can & will support each other & that you don’t always have to. When support is needed it’s just part of what you do & there are times that each is supported #bfc530

I really like using ChatGPT and others for automating tasks - I have the idea and need it put together in an email, adding a theme to a staff meeting. I tried to use it for creating a schedule but we had too many parameters! #bfc530

This is one I just heard about and want to find the time to learn more about! #bfc30
