Christie, a senior at Hendrickson High School in PfISD, has earned one of only 12 spots as a dancer and performer for a callback audition in Colorado with the Drum Core International (DCI) marching band āTroopers.ā This is a huge accomplishment after two years of auditioning, and itās the closest sheās ever been to accepting an offer during her high school career.
To participate this season, Christie needs to raise additional funds to cover travel, equipment, tuition, and food. She has shown incredible dedication and commitment to her dream, working hard to save what she can. With your support, Christie can take part in this incredible opportunity and represent her school and community on a national stage.
Letās come together to help Christie get the rest of the way to making her dream a reality. Every donation, big or small, will make a difference and help her shine with the Troopers this season.
@embryarts is my fellow educator and colleague @basisaustin1 , and she also happens to be Christieās Mom. ā¤ļø Please go to the link in my bio.:))) Letās go! š„ #teacher #server #weddingofficiant #dci #colorguard @thecaspertroopers

The MEPS are three poets, father, daughter, and son.
One of my fourth-grade scholars @basisaustin1 has been published in his first book, āas Iā¦A Simple Journey to Developing Your Inner Poet,ā a poetry collection written by a father and his two children. This is volume one. (The bookās cover is a painting that they made together.)
At 7 AM today, I hustled to the gym to pick up a heavy cardboard box with over 30 copies of The MEPS first poetry collection. Today my fourth-grader generously gifted one copy of his book to every little bat in his element in class today!
Iāve included one of his poems, āHug.ā Fifteen of his poems are included in this collection of āoriginal poems from emerging and experienced voices,ā including āreflections on love, fear, faith, resilience, identity, and purpose.ā
This fourth-grade kid just inspired everybody in the classroom today, including his teacher. That said, I so appreciate the dedicated shout out! ā¤ļø #teacher #server #weddingofficiant #poetry #BATclap! š¦
Call me Mrs. Potato Head @toystory . āWould you hold this while we play laser tag, Mr. Nutter?ā Having a blast playing head chaperone during todayās fourth-grade field trip to @mymainevent . Laser tag, bowling, Angry Birds mini-golf, arcade games, pizza and soft drinks. I appreciate how this place changes a little for the better with each visit. Overall, mission accomplished. Somebody lost a tooth today, so the tooth fairy is coming! #teacher #server #weddingofficiant #fieldtrip #chaperone @embryarts
Dueling White Boards! šø I see one of my fourth-grade English classes after their academic enrichment class (study hall); this week for Teacher Appreciation Week, our scholars have been surprising me with saccharine messages on the white board when I enter the classroom. Today they decided to do a girls versus boys competitionāthe boys decorated one white board, and the girls decorated another. They asked me which one I thought was better, the girlsā or the boysā white board. What would you have said to the kiddos? They didnāt appreciate my answer. #teacher #server #weddingofficiant #happyteacherappreciationweek #thankyou
Teachers @basisaustin1 go to Hawaii! šŗ Even if just for the day.;) We celebrate day three of Teacher Appreciation Week, from morning car duty to afternoon recess, with big hearts and booming cheers! Itās not often that I get to wear banana sunscreen to work. āļø It is often, however, that teachers feel like cheerleaderz. š¤·š»āāļø Thereās a team, and we have goals in mind. We influence outcomes. We attempt on a daily basis to be terminally delightful. š“ We empower and hope to help shape the future. We get campy and find humor and humility in our humanity, our imperfections. ā¤ļø #teacher #teacherappreciationweek #server #weddingofficiant #thankyou
Happy National Teacher Appreciation Day! I may have lost @americasfavoriteteacher this year, but I sure do feel like a winner baby.

To everyone, I do what I love to do because of you. #teacher #server #weddingofficiant #nationalteacherappreciationday #thankyou
