We’ve got an awesome full house for @Region10ESC Elementary Civics Training today! #civicsmatters #civics @GISDTLD @TXSBOE @teainfo @GisdSoc
This week was such a great reminder of how blessed I am to be part of @gisdnews. Thank you to @Roach_Wranglers for inviting me to share English and Spanish #literacy with our #Kindergarten learners. #ReadAcrossAmerica
Thank you to our wonderful district leader, Mr. Ruiz, for reading to Ms. Galaviz's kindergarten class with such animation and heart! You made our Read Across America event magical! @technagogy @gisdnews @GISDREADS

Jesus teaches us that true righteousness consists in love and that, within every precept of the Law, we must learn to identify a call to love. It is not enough to refrain from killing a person physically, if one then kills with words and undermines the other person's dignity.

Presented to an amazing group of principals yesterday and then voted for their ability to fund their programs and pay their teachers. I am blessed to be both a parent and leader in @gisdnews . Please go out and vote. Our kids deserve the best!
Feeling inspired because I had the privilege of speaking to our @gisdnews #FutureEducators and I can already see that our pipeline the future is in great hands. Shoutout to Lisa Sanborn from @SHS_Mustangs for putting together an unparalleled program.
I was blown away by the commitment of the teachers and leaders at @Rowlett_Bobcats and @Stephens_Stars. Every move they made was driven by providing kids with everything they need. With dedication like this we are on our way to an “A”! @gisdnews #GoForTheGOLD
Had the chance to support the beginning of an amazing transformation at @Couch_Comets yesterday. Kids were ready to learn and teachers were eager to give them what they need. Great things happening at @gisdnews.

My 17th first day of school as an educator, but my 1st as a part of @gisdnews. Blessed to be supporting @BES_Cowboys where the sense of community is obvious.
Great leaders and great teach make great learning environments for students. Wishing all @gisdnews students a productive first day of school and their best school year yet.
These halls are ready for the first day of school—where past meets future and history is made through excellence! Every detail is filled with the love and dedication our teachers poured into making it happen, and we can’t wait to welcome our students! youtu.be/4FUQOh6-jaI
Had the opportunity to kickoff @gisdnews #SAILInitiative with our 8 participating campuses. The commitment of our teachers and leaders is inspiring.
Superintendent @drlopez23 welcomed back @gisdnews principals with the reminder that we can't fall in the trap of having "Higher expectations for material goods, than livelihoods!". I am feeling blessed to be part of this amazing work.

URGENT!! Office of English Language Acquisition (OELA) is "being abolished with all positions". Please reach out to your congressional delegation to make them aware of this.

TEA featured Wainwright in their report. 1 of only 3 schools in the State of Texas to move from a projected F rating to an A. I'd like to publicly thank Chief Orlando Riddick, Principal Michelle Lewis & ED Idara Yates for their outstanding leadership and commitment to children
