Today was my last full day as an academic coach.A teacher popped into my room, & as we were talking, told me that she actually looked forward to PLCs the past couple years. Time is the most precious resource for teachers, so those words really meant everything to me. #EdCoach
I was reminded of the day my class visited our school garden for a lesson with our farmer, and they all got to pick bell peppers which they ate like apples the rest of the day. It was the cutest! #farm2school
One of the reasons I love working for @MCScommunicates so much is because we have the best leaders! Congratulations @treyduke, this is so well-deserved! #bestofMCS
Please join us in congratulating Dr. Trey Duke from @MCScommunicates for being named the 2026 Mid-Cumberland Superintendent of the Year! 🎉

Test scores are important, but they almost never tell the full story. A kindergartener who rarely speaks at school read 8 words to me today! Honestly, I felt honored that she read aloud to me. It was a huge milestone for her. A percentile could never capture that! #studentgrowth
2 former students popped in today! We reminisced on their 5th grade year (they’re sophomores in college) & talked about what they’re doing now. They said they think of me often & let me tell you, that right there is the magic of teaching. You often don’t know your impact!

There is nothing more precious than seeing students reunite with their friends, teachers, and school staff after a break! Arrival this morning made my heart so happy! #schoolculture #BlackFoxChiefs
I just saw a tv commercial saying that the TN voucher bill will raise teacher pay. I’ve never seen a commercial advertising a bill, ever, and the goal of that program is not to raise teacher pay. Raising teacher pay and investing in public schools is not dependent upon vouchers.
So proud of @JessicaCod85! She is such a dedicated educator! #BestofMCS
We are excited to spotlight @MCScommunicates' Jessica Codispoti for the 'Year of Tennessee Teachers', nominated by her peers for her determination to improve her teaching & increase outcomes for her students. Thank you for your commitment to students! #TNSupportsTeachers
So excited that @CathyHWhitehead was selected as the Tennessee Supervisor of the Year! She is knowledgeable, supportive, and pushes us towards excellence daily. I’m a better educator and instructional coach because of her!
We are thrilled to announce the 2024-25 Tennessee Principal and Supervisor of the Year! Thank you for your commitment to students. We are honored to recognize you as exceptional education leaders in TN! Read more: tn.gov/education/news…
We remember @SiegelTennis Head Coach Jeff Martin, who has passed away this morning at the age of 62. We offer our condolences to his wife Laura and his daughters Sara and Rachel. Jeff touched so many lives in a positive manner in the classroom and on the tennis courts. #P2BASS
I’ve voted in every presidential election since I turned 18, but serving on @TennesseeSTOY opened my eyes to the importance of our TN House & Senate, especially on issues I’m passionate about. I now follow legislative sessions and know that I made informed choices today! #GoVote
This election is a great opportunity to advocate for the educational needs of our children and the schools where we work. 🇺🇸
Today I saw 3 tiny Spidermen spot each other in the lobby and high five, read amazing pourqoui tales, handed out candy to some of our students, celebrated amazing science data with a fourth grade class, and received the sweetest text from a teacher. It was the perfect Halloween!
I’m so proud of Franchesca! She is truly one of the best with the biggest heart for her students and for our profession! Thank you @JoinTQEE for lifting up educators across our state! #excellence #BestofMCS
Congratulations Ms Franchesca Graffeo and the Black Fox Elementary family. Ms Graffeo is among a prestigious group of 20 teachers across the state to be named a 2024 TN Early Educator Award winner.
I coach in a building full of amazing teachers! Any day that I get to see them in action is just a great day!
National Instructional Coaches Day was October 6th and though we are a little late, we want to make sure we take the time to recognize our amazing Black Fox Instructional Coaches, Kim Inglis and Jon Simmons! @MCScommunicates @K_Inglis5 @teachpreach71
Feeling lucky that almost all the books I’ve had on hold at Libby have become available just in time for fall break and a week at the beach! What more could a girl want?!
I’ve worked with fifth graders the past few days- I don’t know what it is about them, but they really are the sweet spot for me! Watching their reactions to a major cliffhanger in Esperanza Rising & watching them write paragraphs confidently gave me all the teacher feels! #HQIM
