A warm thank you to @GovWesMoore, Senator @ChrisVanHollen, @RepRaskin, and @EasternMS_Prin Lisa Shorts for helping us to recognize and celebrate the achievement of the prize winning students Ethan, Rahm, Daniel, Ruby, Madeline, Sonia, Florence, Alma, Chelsea, Henok, Tina, Zadie, Noor, Jeremy & Haohan at Eastern Middle School in @MCPS, Maryland. So fun to see Senator Van Hollen's staff assistant and EMS almuni Faina Pensy reconnect with teacher Dr. Warren Scheib who was also her teacher adviser when she won 3rd prize in the @StudentCam competition!

So proud of my friend @JamesAllrich during this season of stretching, sacrificing & showing up for his calling. It took discipline to stand in his dissertation proposal defense: late nights, revisions & quiet perseverance all showed today. He is absolutely on his way๐ŸŽ“
