A1: #regrouping. I am excited to start the school year off strong! The past two years have been a struggle as I had been on maternity leave when the year started and I missed key meetings and getting the year set up! #D100chat#d100inspires
Hi everyone! Sarah Gamradt; assistant principal at Komensky Elementary. A1: My summer was filled with music, my kiddos, and watching my eldest learn how to hula hoop! #d100chat

A3- Big changes in 210 this year! We got rid of the closet doors to create a better library/reading nook for the students! (Pictures of the completed space to come) We also will focus on developing growth mindsets to tackle any challenge that comes our way! #d100chat

A3: My Ss did such a great job with their money skills last year. I’ve been thinking about having them possibly start selling coffee to teachers this year? I’d love to give my Ss more realistic learning experiences this year. Excited to see what we can do with this idea #d100chat
