It's always a joy to work with this team and to connect with our colleagues statewide.

I'm still not quite sure how we did it, but we had a great time with small group rotations in our 100-person class yesterday at #MOPWR2024 . What a fun challenge!

We're starting #MOPWR2024 with @thomascmurrayedu and gratitude: thank you, teachers, for all you do for our learners every day.

The (icy!) start to second semester already has me looking forward to presenting at @MSTA’s Virtual New Teacher Summit. Register below and let me know if you'll be there!

The MOSTOY chapter would like to thank @MoCommissioner for always championing Missouri's students while also making it a priority to listen to teachers and to elevate their voices. We are extremely grateful for her service.

Inspiring evening celebrating 60 years of @UMSLCOE, 45 years of @GatewayWriting , and 25 years of @CCC_UMSL Leadership Academy in Character Education. As Dean Taylor put it, "These 45 years are about people." Thank you for building an amazing legacy! #motoy23

Thanks to the staff at @MERSGoodwill Excel Centers for sharing some of your back-to-school time with me! We talked brain science, safety, AI, adapting for all learners, and education as the foundation for success. Have a wonderful term! #motoy23

Congratulations to @MOEducation 's new class of Pioneers in Education! Learning their stories of lifetimes serving public schools was an inspirational start to the new year. https://t.co/6yvlaLEmAm #motoy23

What a week at #SpaceCamp . Engineering challenges, perspective from the Apollo & Artemis programs, team building, and 3 Gs. Thank you @RocketCenterUSA and @CCSSO for the opportunity to learn and connect with a wide universe of possibilities! #ntoy23 #motoy23

When my nine-year-old self wished to go to Space Camp, I had no idea the time limit on that wish would extend all this way! Looking forward to seeing the #ntoy23 cohort and finally getting to try that zero gravity chair. #motoy23 #spacecamp

2/2 @MOAgMeg shared a keynote that applies across every subject: "You can only innovate when you understand something completely. When we understand the problem, we can see the gap, and find a solution." This is why we need deep knowledge of our areas! #motoy23

1/2 I learned so much this evening with @educationproj and @NourishFuture at their Ag Meets Ed dinner--way to represent, MO teachers! #motoy23

This year's #neara was special for me: my family, including my two young kids, visited the assembly on July 4th. My favorite moment also grounds the work in a very real way--we do this for our kids. All of them. I love what we do. #motoy23

It's always a good day when I get to see @BrianSkinnerKS , @RebeckaMozdeh , and @SarahBWessling . "This is why we teach. You hold our democracy. Liberty is not a guarantee. It is a product of our nation recognizing: we belong to each other." #ntoy23 #motoy23 #neara

Happy Independence Day from the floor of the #neara *and* from our union sister, Dr. Jill Biden. Her husband says hi too. 😁🇺🇸

It feels so good to be back in a seat again with over 5,000 of my union siblings. #NEARA23 is underway!

Resolutions Committee is moving through the business in Orlando! It's so good to be back in person at the #neara in 2023. It's been a minute. #mnealeads

It's always an honor to hear @kurtsenior_ share his thoughts. Congratulations on your year of service and thank you for championing our kids and teachers! #ntoy22 @CCSSO

Congratulations to the Southwest Regional Teachers of the Year we recognized tonight! (And safe travels to the DESE and MOTOY folks who joined to cheer on these dedicated educators.) #motoy23

It's the weekend! Listening to future teachers share their insights on current challenges in education with @UMSLCOE was a reflective way to kick it off. Congratulations to the #ftla participants and thanks for sharing your learning. #motoy23
