I'm so excited about this!

As a result of the changes we made to our keynote speakers, there are some changes that took place. Please review the most recent copy of our Schedule At A Glance.

I'm having a blast helping seniors work through planning for college essays! If you're feeling stressed or overwhelmed, message me! I also have a Comprehensive College Admission plan if you need more support in the process.

I'm pumped to head to Sherman Independent School District for the next three days to IGNITE Bilingual Education, marrying curriculum resources with great pedagogy in classrooms with Emergent Bilingual Students! What do you think every bilingual teacher needs to hear this year?

How will you support your bilingual and dual language initiatives this school year? More teachers are entering the profession without having studied education. With the right support and training, we can help them have positive impacts on learning while increasing the likelihood that they’ll want to stay in your schools! Investing in teachers is less expensive than replacing them.

This hold on funding hits as many Texas school districts are closed for the week of July 4th. These funds provide so many supports for at-risk students in Texas.

The Trump admin is withholding over $6 billion in education grants for schools The federal grant funding traditionally goes out by July 1. It includes support for migrant education, after-school programs and English language learners.

I’m excited to head to Hilton Anatole Dallas this week for and collaborate with the leaders behind the work in Texas schools!
