Professionally I am a school counselor at Wakefield Forest Elementary School in FCPS. Personally I am a Mom of 2 amazing twins and wife to a wonderful husband.
Character Day is this Friday, October 29 (not November 29 as you may have seen in News You Choose - we're anxious for Thanksgiving, we guess!). Dress as your favorite character from a book, movie, or TV show! #SCAspiritday
Now that things are more settled, happy to introduce our new bundle of joy and Wolfpack member 🐺, Elizabeth "Lizzy" Boateng! Born 2/23/2021. Mom, baby, and family are doing well. Mrs. B is missing her students, but enjoying the snuggles with this sweet girl!
So thankful for our local Long and Foster Agency, the Good Sheppard Church, and generous families who donated so that we codd support families in need for Thanksgiving Meals! #grateful@CounselorsWfes

I know a lot of white educators who have been very passionate about having and modeling a growth mindset. This is how we embraced a blended learning revolution. A student centered learning revolution. The antiracist revolution is long overdue.
Step 1: Have a growth mindset. #CourageOverComfort
Step 2: It is not easy work but we must #DoTheWork in whatever capacity we can ❤️ It’s not a moment, it’s a movement. The time is now to educate ourselves, stand for justice, and use our voices. #BlackLivesMatter ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
Increasingly schools are embracing a growth mindset to bolster student motivation and achievement. Learn how parents can bring this home!
