What a great graduation from Distinguished Leadership in Practice Program through @NCPrincipals Made some amazing connections throughout the state through the program. Loved seeing superintendents supporting their Principals, some I've had the privilege to work under @scs_stanly

Thank you so much for such a great experience

You want differentiated PD, You Got It- staff led PD for each other today on high impact strategies in math, reading, and foundational reading skills. We also had a session on our #GlobalLeaders program and building our Wilcat leaders. @StanlySchools @ParticipateLrng

That's a wrap @unccharlotte officially a graduate for the 3rd time. The last four years have been a journey with moves both professionally and personally, a new baby, and principalship. Thankful and blessed. Ed.D Educational Leadership and Superintendency #2024Grad – at North Carolina, USA

Enjoyed celebrating the last 4 years of hard work last night. Third graduate degree, third time receiving a 4.0 GPA. This time with some added challenges: new baby, mom of 4, three school changes, new construction, and principalship. Now let's graduate! @unccharlotte @CLT_COED – at North Carolina, USA

So honored to be a finalist for the @StanlySchools Principal of the Year. I was honored to be considered as a 2nd year Principal. Thank you to a district who allows me to grow and supports me along the way. Very blessed! – at North Carolina, USA

#Principal needs your help. Challenged students to raise more $ than top earner for #Boosterthon $ for upgrades to classroom, technology, and a gym makeover! Your donation could keep me from camping out on the roof mybooster.com/v3/dash/0kqMRG… Picture of me getting slimed today. – at Stanfield, NC

On Monday I had the honor of presenting my dissertation research at the 5th annual @CLT_COED Education Research Symposium. I absolutely loved sharing my passion for teachers, specifically international DL/It teachers. Graduations officially getting close! – at North Carolina, USA

Today I drove a mini bus full of our next leaders. Principal Advisory Committee headed to Raleigh to meet with @RepWayneSasser a former @WildcatsSES ! We learned so much. Don't worry, our future is in GREAT hands with these young leaders! @StanlySchools @jarroddennis – at North Carolina, USA

I hate to leave, @NewHanoverCoSch are you hiring? Thankful for the opportunity to get "filled" not only professionally but mentally. Walking this morning and finding a waterfront spot to work remotely before heading back. Wilmington is beautiful. @NCPrincipals – at North Carolina, USA

Great job today @gregory_elem on your panel discussion around Global Leadership in your school! I am so excited to launch our program with @ParticipateLrng soon at @WildcatsSES . Thank you for sharing! @NCPrincipals – at North Carolina, USA

In Wilmington for @NCPrincipals Early Career Principal session. Session 1 @casas_jimmy bringing the heat. Always ready to get back in my building after his sessions. Shifting To Do-To Be. @StanlySchools – at North Carolina, USA

This week at our @StanlySchools principal meeting @jarroddennis gave me a little something to add to my desk. So appreciative of a district that recognizes your accomplishments and celebrates with you! – at Monroe, NC
