My heart is a little heavy tonight. Our teachers are doing it all. I am in awe. Thank you on behalf of every student and parent who have no idea how hard you are working on their behalf. YOU are heroes. All of you.

I left LHJH for the last time today. Our PTA and LH community funded beautiful trees to be planted my first year as principal. . I helped plant this one. We are both growing...that makes me happy.
This spoke to me this morning as we begin building relationships with our kids in
@RichardsonISD
and
@JJPearceHS
this week. Let’s make Wednesday a great first day for ALL of our students!
Adapt. Survive. Thrive. Get ready, Mustangs. Can’t wait to serve the Pearce community with you. Thanks
@BostonRob

The real heroes in all of this? Our

custodians still working hard after working a 14 hour day to keep our band kids safe between concerts. We appreciate YOU!
I don’t think parents ever really hear from their kids about how proud they are of them. And then one day...this. Love you Chase. Thank you for being proud and so supportive during this time of change and transition. I am proud of YOU!
I’d like to just say congratulations to my absolutely amazing mother. Today, she will be formally announced as the new Principal of J.J. Pearce High School. We are all so proud of you, keep doing what you do. Pearce is lucky to have you. Go Mustangs!
Hey
@LakeHighlandsJH
I have eggs. Some have candy. Some have money. Some have jeans passes until the end of the year. Some have lunch at Shady’s. Some have Starbucks. Some have queso and chips parties. Some have taco lunches for your PLC teams. See U tomorrow for your egg draws!

Mrs. Breedlove, are you really going to make me sit here by myself until I finish my English paper?
Ummmm. Yes. Yes, I am.
This is his “I’m finished” smile.
It takes a village.
@JJPearceHS
Needed to valet my car at a conference and so glad I did! The valet yelled MRS. BREEDLOVE! It's me! Danny! He said I was one of his only teachers who wasn't out to get him in jr high. Not gonna lie, that hurt my educator heart. The hug today was REAL. We matter educator friends.
Our JJ Pearce Spirit Stangs bring joy and spirit everywhere they go. ❤️💙 All kids deserve to be clapped for and celebrated. Thank you for Mrs. Utz for your vision. Inclusion changes lives.
@JJPearceHS
Today. Total teamwork. So blessed to work with people who say yes and dig in to make all the things happen. Spring Break let’s go! Beyond? We are ready. Thank you to

leadership for all you have done to prepare us and our campuses.

@3jstone
I took a personal day today. Y’all.
Self-care 100%
Today Morning Show. Coffee. Breakfast. Massage. Facial. Grocery store. Made pizza with almond flour. Hanging out with my family.
So glad I pushed pause today.
So this happened today. I love these people so much. Thank you
@LakeHighlandsJH
staff for surprising me today. I love you so very much and miss you more than words can say.
#teamLHJH
I was asked recently about my leadership style. I want to be the kind of leader that the best teachers deserve and the kind of leader that will push others forward - encouraging, supporting and teaching along the way when needed. Supported teachers create supported students.
We value relationships and it shows! Our kids answered the question Name a teacher/staff member who cares for me
@LakeHighlandsJH
and how does he/she show it. Wow. 97% of our kids have a connection with at least one adult on campus. We will now be intentional with the other 3%.
Three Mesquite girls born and raised. One is going to be nominated for Superintendent of the YEAR. So proud of you
@3jstone
and so proud of
@heyheymrshahn
who spoke tonight in support of the nomination. I am one proud colleague of these two tonight.
Please pray for our Mustang family, especially
@JJPHSSoccer
. It’s been a very hard week. Thankful to have known this amazing kid. ❤️💙

Some days you leave when the bell rings. Today was one of those days...and the crazy thing is nothing bad happened. Maybe the weather? Hang in there educators. Rest is coming. ❤️💙
Celebrating
@AGallo0821
bday today! She’s all kinds of fabulous. ❤️💙 I made her take off her mask for a pic. Everyone deserves a maskless bday pic...taken from 10 feet away.
Self-care 2020. Just do it.
Walking has given me so much: time listening to my music and time to just appreciate people and houses and nature. And yes, I think through school issues and think about people I love and worry about. Worth every mile.
After 24 years in education, there is one thing I know for sure. The power of building positive relationships is real. It doesn’t mean days won’t be difficult but it sure makes getting up the next day to try again worth it. So thankful to try again daily
@LakeHighlandsJH
.
I took zero first day pics. Yet I have hundreds of memories from today: hugs, laughs, lockers fails and then successes, connecting at lunch without heads buried in cell phones, teachers fist-bumping and high-fiving each other...and kids. What a great first day!
@LakeHighlandsJH
Teacher. Principal. Superintendent. With leadership like this, we will get through this. As
@3jstone
says, WE GOT THIS. Hang in there RISD, family.
