    I really don't want to see this community end (even though I've been MIA the last few months), so while I can't steer the ship alone, I'm willing to work with someone else to keep the ship afloat, so to speak. :) #sstlap

    Good luck and thanks for the learning! Hope the conversations continue ... and eventually the chat. #sstlap

      A note to #sstlap folks. I hope we can find someone or a group to jump in and host #sstlap. I will help in anyway I can. Let me know if interested.

        My Journey with #sstlap has reached its end, at least as host. Here is my post about my journey and my hope for the future of SSTLAP. I am so thankful for all who have participated throughout the years. https://t.co/sdaq7ieusE

    @Braz74 Thanks for all you did for #sstlap and the teachers you talked off the ledge, gave support, or a crazy idea to try. Pirate on my friend. #tlap

    Ben its been an amazing few years. Thank you for being so welcoming to someone like me who many said I missed my calling as a SS teacher years ago. You have really made me think and really push myself to be better in the classroom. Thank you for all the work you do. #sstlap

    Matt I was on that ledge right with you on a few occasions. #sstlap always energized me to try something new as I learned what was possible from all of you. Thanks for being a part of my journey.

    Kara you are awesome thanks for all the ideas you shared. I know there are a lot I have seen online and in my buildings. #sstlap has always been an incredible experience because of teachers like you. There are too many to name that have impacted me. Thanks

    I think it’s safe to say that I’ve met more awesome SS educators through my activity on #sstlap than any other medium - That’s why I really need to give @Braz74 a huge thank you for starting, maintaining, and promulgating #sstlap

    Led by @Braz74, #sstlap brings together the best of the best every week. I not only learned (and borrowed) awesome ideas from SS pirates from around the globe, but gained inspiration into the overall practice of teaching - and had a lot of laughs as well.

    @Braz74 always has insightful topics for discussion, and, on occasion, allowed us to run the #sstlap ship. If you want a great professional development experience, moderate a Twitter chat for an hour – it is powerful!

    I'm fortunate to call @Braz74 a friend. Congrats, Ben, for creating such a powerful crew of SS pros, and thanks so much for being a huge part in my growth as a SS T. More importantly, congrats on your admin license and making the choice to step away from the #sstlap ship
