While I MIGHT be procrastinating about my yard work, I AM reflecting on my learning at the @BCPVPA #ConnectingLeaders conference and on this commitment to action! Thanks to co-chairs @JimLaird23 and @ajgadd and to those who facilitated the powerful learning the past two days!

Wow! @ltldrum is so incredibly inspirational and humble! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and passion. An amazing reminder to unlearn hurrying in order to truly be present and able to imagine change and what is possible. “There is always room in the circle!” #noiie2023

A wonderful example of the power of student voice. Very impressed by how @jenmacintosh and the team @SandsSec listened, even when what they said was hard for them to hear! #noiie2023
The kids are in the building! We are thrilled to welcome students from @SandsSec with @jemacintosh to share how they are using the spiral 🌀& the #decisionmakermoves to address racism and ensure everyone belongs in their school community. #noiie2023

A fun local history story. I remember these races and also remember one of my high school teachers driving in these races! It would be fun to see them return again. “Why there’s no longer ice racing on Duck Lake in the Okanagan” infotel.ca/inwheels/why-ther…

Well, it was a challenge getting to Vancouver yesterday, but I’m so glad to have made it for the learning on Day 2 of the TELP reunion event today! In awe, as always, of the collective expertise and wisdom of the @UBCtelp community! Thanks again, @jhalbert8 and @kaser_linda.

I want my kids to read ALL of these! If these were all banned in Florida, what’s left? 🤷‍♂️
This also works nicely as a Recommended Reading List.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This list contains a number of books that have not been banned widely across Florida. Some individual schools may have banned these books, but it has not been adopted state-wide. It misses many books that have been banned at a large scale however. apnews.com/article/fact-c…

When in PEI with potato-loving kids…👌 Enjoyed the Canadian Potato Museum today! If you’re ever near O’Leary, PEI we highly recommend it!

I think I could get used to this East Coast Lifestyle! Also, need to get myself an Adirondack chair!

Today, I can relate to this! Happy Canada Day, everyone!

A couple of photos from yesterday’s #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay assembly at CTE. Honoured to welcome Elder Bonnie and so proud of our students who shared their fancy shawl dancing with the school! Thanks to all involved! #ProudPrincipal

I might have kicked the coffee table at this very moment jumping up off my couch! 😩 #LetsGoOilers
It just had to be Connor. #LetsGoOilers
