At M. Agnes Jones Elementary School, it was encouraging to see students collaborating and working independently on their assigned tasks. Leadership continues to excel, and I want to thank everyone for making a positive impact on the lives of the students you serve every day.

Y’all… my heart is full. She doesn’t even know how the 21-year-old me needed her light— how her brilliance whispered to a version of me still finding my way. Thirteen years later, I’m still proud. Still grateful. Still writing. Still her mama!
Giving flowers to my 5th grade teacher, Ms. Dobashi, for introducing me to this gem! 🥹 Because of you, Ms. @TerukoDobashi I know the power journaling holds, the words that sometimes we cannot express. Poetry, words that are the epitome of one’s own heart. Thank you Mama T!💖💐

I had so much fun kicking off Pre-K Week by reading @SEL_APS The Magical Yet with our youngest learners @APSMAJ_Elem. Our scholars are intelligent, curious, and full of potential — ready to blaze a path of excellence with the power of “yet.”

My heart is full after our school-wide publishing party @APSMAJ_Elem. Listening to students share their expository and opinion essays reminded me—writers are revolutionaries. @apsupdate @ShellyGoodrum @GlenneishaJ

Reaching our goals requires us to consistently evaluate our actions and their effectiveness. Together with the leadership team, we analyzed our CIP and prioritized short-term actions that will move us closer to achieving our goals.

From koi to kale 🌿🐟✨ Our 2nd grade harvest was more than food — it was a lesson in life cycles and how living things depend on each other. #MAJSTEAM #Aquaponics

Deeply moved by Belonging Beyond Brown at @Morehouse Human Rights Film Festival tonight. To be in community with Bettina Love and other abolitionist educators shining light toward liberation reignites my spirit, grounds me in the heart work, and reminds me of my why!
