It was quite a journey over the last many, many months. Here is our wrap-up blog on the Board vote regarding redistricting. Thanks to my board partners on this major undertaking: @ryanreyna.bsky.social & Chris Harris. www.kellycarmichaelbooz.com/post/we-vote...

One more school board update - we voted to extend the current SRO MOU up to the next 6 months to allow more time for deliberations on the next one. We have not had much time as a board to consider the proposed changes and the majority of us had real concerns.

And we closed the door on this chapter of redistricting. Tonight we voted to put triangle 3 and middle school option E. You can see what that means using this slider combination. 🧵 SLIDER MAP: cdn.knightlab.com/libs/juxtapo...

It’s Brain Awareness Month! 🧠 Join SML’s @kellycbooz.bsky.social, @sari.bsky.social, & our AI teammate EdBrAIn as we explore AI in education—what to use, what to skip, and how to support real learning. Suggest a topic in the discussion! sharemylesson.com/ai @aft.org @aftteach.bsky.social

Interactive slider maps for Triangles 2 & 3 matched with the three middle school options. www.kellycarmichaelbooz.com/post/redistr...

As promised, our latest update on redistricting in case you weren't able to watch our May 29 board meeting, which adjourned at 12:30 am. Here's what's next: June 5: Public Hearing June 11: Steering Committee June 12: School Board Vote www.kellycarmichaelbooz.com/post/redistr...

I’ll work on another blog update soon. In the meantime, for those who could not watch the full board meeting on redistricting recommendations, here’s where we landed: Triangle 2 and 3 maps are still on the table. Circle was eliminated. 🧵 ⬇️ go.boarddocs.com/va/acps/Boar...

For Alexandria friends: here's our latest update on where we are with redistricting —square, circle, triangle maps, policies + next steps. I promise—my “shape map” header image wasn’t a "Squid Game" nod when I created it... and I appreciated the laugh when I noticed it.

What makes a good leader? After 100 days of Trump’s second term, I channeled Close Up civic education days and created a resource to help students think critically and define leadership for themselves. 🧠 Build a rubric 📊 Evaluate traits & issues 📚 Practice democracy ⬇️ @sharemylesson.bsky.social
