Bittersweet: my last day in the Advanced Academics department! I used to sign up for any class @rustywrites was teaching, then have thoroughly enjoyed teaching alongside him for the past 5 years. He’s the absolute best! @misdadvac

#Campinvention 2022 was amazing, and here’s why! These 5 hardworking instructors and 16 high school Leadership Interns made it a truly special experience for every child and made a real impact. The people make the difference! @misdadvac

These are elementary school children who woke up this morning. Who ate their favorite cereal. Who tied their shoes in double knots. Who laughed with friends on the bus. Now more than a dozen are dead. This isn’t normal. It doesn’t have to be this way. It can’t keep being this way

Maybe Betty just didn't want us to be mad at 2022. What a joyful loving force. Let's all be more like Betty.
