We’ve been working hard to keep our afternoons as chill and purposeful as our mornings, and I am happy to report that today we nailed it! You can’t even tell which picture was taken in the morning and which was at 2:50! Way to go, Pathfinders! @SLAMiddle

I have a new advisory - which means I get to learn about all the families.
This week, we are conferencing. It is a thrill to hear the hopes + dreams that families have for their kids.
It’s an honor to carry + support these as we do the messy work of middle school learning!

We took an assessment today, which is always a lift. Unless you make art after. Thank you, Aleem, for art and company.
When you get to learn in a place where people take care of you, it makes a difference. Even when you are the teacher..
Grateful for my @SLAMiddle people today.

Students designed a second marker, either with minor changes or total redesigns, and most of those were carved as well. The final product will be a wall mural full of historic markers and QR codes linking to their summaries. At @SLAMiddle, Presentation is one of our core values.

Here’s how I know that @SLAMiddle is the best school ever… 8th Graders get to take a class with @geekyteach and @SLAMS_PreEng in which they design and create something. 3 kids from the Ironside Advisory made things to hold my many plants! Thank you ALL!

Slightly delayed. Had to honor a great school leader @TimothyMBoyle of @SLAMiddle. Ready to rock and roll on school selection. That orange power tie! Thank you, sir, for your pushing us, always, no matter what. I know - owe you a holler! @PHLschools
