Thanks Pinky for selecting one of my students to participate in your Youth Entrepreneurship Program (YEP)!

This is major! In a rural area, the opportunities and resources are limited. But my kids are no different than any other ones. They’re intelligent, ambitious, confident, creative, and full of hope! That’s why I encouraged them to apply for the cohorts.

And YEP, we’re excited… 👏🏽💙👏🏽

Tell Em’ Tuesday! Central scholars have motion for sure! These young ladies have been accepted to many colleges! Let’s celebrate! Drop them a 👏🏽💙…

Hey! I’m just being reflective & grateful! Gems from the :

Gem 1️⃣ Sooo, do you ever wonder what rural looks like? Rural looks just like me…👧🏽🪞

Gem 2️⃣ The synergy of my team is amaZING! The Rural Education and Innovation team…just full circle reciprocity! ♥️⭕️

Gem 3️⃣ I also met the “pumpkin queen,” Sarah Frey! She told a phenomenal story about her humble beginnings from experiencing rural poverty on “the hill” to now operating a billion-dollar farming business! 👩‍🌾📙

📌 Moral of the story: “You sow seeds and hope for the best!” In essence, YOU may only see the seeds when I actually see the tree! 🌱🌳

STEM Activity: Ice Cream in a Bag🍦 ...and the “E” is for entrepreneurship!

This activity afforded us a mental break! 🥳 My kiddos learned the science behind the activity. But, we didn’t get a chance to discuss the business, entrepreneurship, and marketing components. To be continued...

What’s the Scoop? 🙃 We didn’t add enough sugar! It tasted like sugar free ice cream. No worries! The toppings SWEETENED things up.

CTAE Delivers! 🤩💛 Wasn’t able to meet traditionally. But, got the job done!

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much! 📌 I have a bunch of “cherries” on my team! I wholeheartedly appreciate them! 🍒

You can’t have a bad day in polka dots! Actually, a dot is what you need to make a point.

⚫️ We’re stumbling forward together!

⚫️ Even in the midst of chaos, you matter!

⚫️ Stay focused & do it for you!

Thanks Keniece D Adams for my shirt! You’re the bestest! 🖤

Opportunities for creativity and imagination are limitless. From strings to arrays, you can create traps, power ups, dances, and so much more.

Mrs. Banks put together an amaZING plan! Then, Will’s Big Chic came up with the logistics for getting the staff properly fed during their respective lunches. And the meals were courtesy of Tax Time Tax Service (TJ Freeman)! 💙🦅 Thank you all!
