We just had a code red lockdown, so of course, the first thought that came to my mind was, Lord, please protect us if this is real, and please cover my daughter on the other side of this building. Sometimes, our admin will let us know if we will have a drill during the week, but this caught us all off guard. As I let down the blackout curtain on my door, I saw my co-worker's students out in the hall and opened the door to let him in again; at the time, I did not know if this was an actual drill or a real code red, but I know that student is somebody's child and one of God's babies! I tell him to quietly run into my class and hide with the other kids.
I hate that we have to experience this. One of my students began to panic while hiding and started to shout that he was scared; all I could do was pray and tell him to please be as quiet as possible while some kids began to laugh 😢
*Parents, PLEASE teach your kids the importance of following directions, a time to play, and a time to be serious and listen to teachers and staff caring for your children. The climate of today has changed, and lives are at risk*

Welcome to another inspiring episode of TST That Saved Teacher! In this installment, we're thrilled to introduce you to Marlene, a Houston native whose journey embodies the fusion of faith, education, and the art of dance.
Marlene's passion for dance ignited at 14 when she began her classical training at the prestigious High School for Performing and Visual Arts in Houston. Since then, she has graced stages in Houston and New York City, spending over 15 years performing with small modern dance companies, appearing in off-Broadway musicals and site-specific operas, and lending her voice to various VoiceOver projects.
Alongside her thriving dance career, Marlene has dedicated herself to empowering the minds and bodies of students as a full-time Dance, Physical Education, Health, and College and career educator in various charter and public school systems. Her commitment to teaching extends beyond the classroom, as she also leads pop-up Gospel Dance + Tone classes online and in person and inspires others through indoor cycling, bounce, and barre group fitness.
Marlene's accolades speak volumes about her impact and influence. In 2022, she was recognized as one of Houston Chronicle's Top Fitness Pros, a testament to her dedication and leadership in the fitness community. Marlene holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Dance from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts and a Master of Arts in Dance Education from Hunter College.
When she's not dancing or coaching, Marlene finds solace in spending time with her two beloved dogs, Nala and Q-Tip, exploring Houston's diverse culinary scene, and deepening her spiritual connection through meditation with God.
Join us as we delve into Marlene's remarkable journey, exploring how she integrates her faith, passion for dance, and dedication to education to inspire others to reach their fullest potential. Take advantage of this enlightening episode of TST That Saved Teacher!

I’m reminded with 1 Corinthians 10:13 that God is faithful and that no temptation in this world can stand against my Father and his Children. Remember He doesn’t give you more than you can endure ☺️❤️ 🙏
