It's Paraprofessional Appreciation Day, and I need the world to know I would 10000% have literally died from stress and over exhaustion in the last year without my amazing classroom paras: Ms. Solano, Ms. Joy, and Ms. Parveen. #WorthAMillionBucks @ExplorersCol @AliefISD

.@collins_library creates the most neurodivergent affirming space in her library. My students are lucky to have you there to let them be effusive and excited. My kids are looking forward to what you have in store next week. #collinsonamission @ExplorersCol
