Executive Director of the Virginia Association for Elementary School Principals VAESP
Today, the #KindnessTour officially kicks off—let’s go! 🧡 I’m filled with gratitude and humility as I prepare to partner with educators, leaders, and organizations across the state and nation in the weeks ahead.
I spent last night preparing the renewal or enrollment for all 60 principals and all 79 assistant principals on the elementary and middle school in Howard County so they will be active in @Maespmd and @NAESP. One mass enrollment and payment sure saves a lot of time for everyone.
Shout out to @EdCosentino11 for his leadership of Zone 3! We appreciate Ed’s passion and commitment! @NAESP #principalsUNITED
A Big thank you to all the people who worked behind the scenes to make the @NAESP & @NASSP #PrincipalsUnited Conference a valuable experience for everyone including @efranksnaesp, @MelissaPatschke, @eddiecosentino, @DrKDArmstrong @jackienaesp, @AknightApril,
We’ve been voting for nearly 24 hours trying to stop this Big Ugly Bill. 16 million Americans’ health care is on the line—this bill is bad news for the country. There’s too much at stake to do nothing.
Another amazing keynote to close out #VAESP2025 by @PrincipalKafele - Is my school better BECAUSE I lead it? And what is my value INSTRUCTIONALLY to the teachers I supervise?
What an amazing weekend of learning, growing, and connecting with incredible leaders from across VA at @theVAESP ! Inspired by the keynote speakers and collaboration with others! #VAESP2025
