My heart hurts for the SouthEast Raleigh community and my WCPSS family. When will the violence end? My heart goes out to the families, students, and staff.
We are heartbroken for the students, educators and families of Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School and we grieve for this tragic loss. We cannot accept violence in our schools and we must continue to work to identify threats and ensure the safety of students and teachers so they can focus on teaching and learning. -RC
Annnddd on Day 10 of the #HCSelfCareEOY Challenge, your task is to leave a positive message for someone today. To our @HortonsCreekES family, here is a little message just for you. With love, @tiffcooper and Mrs. Lee
It's Day 8 of the #HCSelfcareEOY Challenge: Practice Gratitude! Sometimes we end up focusing on the negatives and we forget all the wonderful things in our lives. What are you thankful for today @HortonsCreekES @TiffCooper123
Day 7 of the #HCSelfCareEOY Challenge is here! Today you are tasked to SAVOR something! Savoring something engages all your senses and helps you fully experience that thing. It helps you be present and grateful in that moment. @HortonsCreekES @TiffCooper123
Alright @HortonsCreekES ! It is Day 6 of the #HCSelfCareEOY Challenge! Today's task is to show some kindness. Kindness can help reduce stress and improve your overall health. It can boost your serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin levels! @TiffCooper123

Happy Day 5 of the #HCSelfcareEOY Challenge! Today's task is to relax and find some peace in nature! Whether it means you go outside or play some nature sounds, it is sure to bring you some feelings of calm. @HortonsCreekES @TiffCooper123
Day 4 of our #HCSelfCareEOY Challenge! Today's task is to have some fun! Having fun boosts seratonin, relieves stress, and helps build positive relationships. Now go have some fun! @HortonsCreekES @TiffCooper123

Happy Day 2 of the #HCSelfCareEOY Challenge! Today's goal is to practice some mindfulness. With testing coming up, our brains could use a little moment of peace to help us focus. @HortonsCreekES @TiffCooper123
Our Asian American communities are often overlooked and brushed aside. We were part of history so why don't we get to see that? We are part of this country so why don't we feel that?
Another reminder of why we need to teach Asian American history in schools 🙄 ⬇️⬇️ nbcnews.com/news/asian-ameri…
Day 1 of the #HCSelfCareEOY Challenge is here! Already seeing some hydrated hawks today! Today's challenge: Hydrate Hydrate Hydrate! Studies show that 75% of adults in America don't drink enough water! Hydration levels can impact our cognitive function (and a lot more).

Some mid week affirmations for Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! As educators we forget that we are human and sometimes we forget our colleagues are human too. We are all learning and growing just like our kiddos. Be kind to yourself and others! ❤ @HortonsCreekES

When someone opens up to you about how they are feeling, you don’t need to have all the answers or make their difficult feelings go away. You don’t need to ‘fix’ them. The best thing you can do is show them you hear them.
A gentle reminder for this rainy day! We are all human. So give yourself a little grace and flexibility.
Be gentle with yourself. You can’t have it all together all the time

Something dangerous is happening in U.S. politics. More and more states are introducing racist and xenophobic legislation to restrict citizens of select countries, including China from buying land and settling their families. Sign up to help us stop them: bit.ly/41XE38b
