“The DC XQ initiative ensures our school communities are at the center of the work to rethink and redesign the student experience. I look forward to the ideas and opportunities that will come out of Coolidge, CHEC, H.D. Woodson, and Ron Brown.”

As I navigate the school redesign journey it is important to me that I keep equity at the forefront of this work and this course I just completed helped me do just that. Shout out Equity Meets Design on this inspiring course. @DcpsLab @XQAmerica

Today was a good day. Got to meet with our core team to discuss how we are managing change for our stakeholders and even dived into rewriting our mission. @CHECDC @DcpsLab @XQAmerica

Transitioning from a math teacher, to a math coach,to the Director of the IT and Engineering academy at CHEC, now to the redesign Director one thing is for sure you will always find me in close proximity to STEAM. It is my passion. @CHECDC @STEMforHer

Sometimes when you are deep in school redesign and doing all the big things your forget there are small things you can do along the way that will make a big difference. I am listening @CHECDC #checthenextiteration #popup #youthvoice @DcpsLab #redesigndirector

Had the chance to visit @PurduePolyHS for the past 2 days to see how they incorporate youth voice and choice in their school community through projects and the schedule. Thank you for your time and knowledge. @CHECDC @XQAmerica #checthenextiteration

This just happened! 2 years ago Appian and I set a goal to create a curriculum that focused on STEAM, Design Thinking, and social justice. I was surprised with this today😭. All 8th graders @CHECDC will get to use it. Thanks @Appian #checthenextiteration #CurriculumDeveloper

Another good week for redesign at CHEC. Myself along with the students on the design team conducted 9th and 10th grade focus groups. The students had so many ideas on our bold ideas. @DcpsLab @CHECDC #CHECtheNextIteration #youthvoice

It was a good day at CHEC for redesign. @MyaFerguson13 had her students doing a redesign of her classroom. The middle school team introduced the students to our redesign model. The 10th grade team had choice Friday. @DcpsLab @CHECDC #checthenextinteration #youthvoice
