Being a principal is the best job! Who else gets to listen to students play in orchestra, see mathematicians solve for the area of a triangle, listen to conversations about characters, and see students sweat in PE? All by 10am! #Bestjobinthebuilding #GunstonPRIDE

Never false hope, you can not own that!!! All our kids are capable and qualified, THANK YOU for recognizing their ability. Now we know, and we need a new playbook, let’s talk...
Not ONE Black Student was Accepted into Virginia's Top High School's class of 2024. @TJColonials @fcpsnews @timkaine This is what systemic racism looks like in action. Every year I give false hopes to black children apply.

Listening to Interim Supt @JohnsonCintia share her proposed budget. Started with a story about Ss from her years as principal at Claremont. Look how they have grown! And what a compelling introduction! #GuntonPRIDE

One of our Black History Month celebrations was a TA/Homeroom door decorating contest. The doors were outstanding, so many good ones. This one touched my heart. Ss identified their teacher Jawana Washington as one of the black women who inspire them. #GunstonPRIDE

As good as the pie was, the learning and work with Gunston LeadEducators was better. Continuing the work to make grades and grading a more equitable practice. #GunstonPRIDE

I love reflective conversations. A teacher shared with me, “I was skeptical at first, but implemented the strategy and was blown away. The kids were engaged and were learning.” It’s not easy to unlearn and relearn but oh so necessary. #Unlearntorelearn #GunstonPRIDE
