To say I was surprised is an understatement! My longtime friend Tonya said come have dinner with just the middle school core team… meanwhile my wife & the team prepped for a retirement party with dear friends from both schools I taught at during my 31 year career - I am blessed

My 7th and 8th graders who are learning U.S. history as part of their curriculum see the importance of experts and historians have more of a role in curating resources, 6th graders, learning ancient history, are more unsure about their stance. #OTWV

Today's OnTuesdayWeVote poll asked @abssvirtual middle schoolers about a proposal in North Carolina to ban social media for kids under 14. 🗳 All grades opposed a possible ban but the percentage of support in Grade 7 surprised me a little #OTWV
