Craig was a close friend of mine and he is already so missed 💔 Seeing the impact he left on this world over the past week has been inspiring. 🫐

If your workplace is in need of a little winter morale boost, I highly recommend hosting a chili cook-off! We had 12 different chilis enter our competition and it was a blast!

Awesome, that's right up my ally, thanks for sharing!

Awesome! Thanks for the recs 😀

Awesome! Thanks for the recommendation

I finished my 100th book of the year on 12/31 at about noon and I was so excited! Keeping my goal at 100 books again for 2025 because I was cutting it close 😅 Always accepting book recommendations if anyone has any good ones!

We picked the perfect time to set up a hot cocoa bar in our office! ❄️☕️ 🥶

What's a saying or phrase that you are GUARANTEED to hear every week in your office?

Lately, my coworker/office roommate and I catch ourselves saying "The days are long but the weeks fly" every Friday around 4:00 p.m. #SchoolPR

At a school talking to a teacher and principal, and she mentioned that she was reading Magic Hour by Kristin Hannah, and it made me happy because I LOVE that book. The principal added it to her TBR too. Now I'm thinking, should I start a #bookclub in my district? Has anyone else done it? #SchoolPR

Something about growing up in IL makes you loyal to the @chicagobearsobs.bsky.social NO MATTER WHAT. I can't explain it, we will just never not support this team no matter how much stress & disappointment they put us through. Are other states/cities like this?

If you're in #SchoolPR and work in a district office, I HIGHLY recommend hosting a staff spirit week!

I loved spirit week as a student and teacher, and our staff had so much fun with it this past week! Bonus points if you turn it into a contest, that drove a lot more engagement for us.

How do we all feel about snow in November? This year I'm okay with it because I put my Christmas decorations up last weekend! ❄️🎄

I won the Teacher Lists raffle I entered at INSPRA's state conference! I’m pretty sure that’s the first raffle I’ve won in my life....

Then I remembered I forgot to post this picture from the conference 😀

So fun to collab with other #schoolPR pros!

That's how you know you're at a great district!

I'm in IL in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago! I wonder how many of us Cronkite kids ended up in #schoolPR!?

Okay, I'm glad we connected! My district has 20 schools too and I'm also an ASU graduate 🔱 I spend about half my time out in schools and classrooms, it's the best part of working in school PR.

Yes! It's so helpful to have that direct connection to students through coaching.

Hey #SchoolPR friends - let's chat! If your mission was to share some "untold stories" from around your district, where would you start?

Do I need another form of social media in my life? Not sure. Am I way too curious to not dig into this? YES. Hi 👋 everyone. I'm Jen and I work in #SchoolPR in Illinois.
