Happy mole day to all! Had some firsts this year. A live duet (with harmony), a murder mystery and this shirt with my face on a mole. Hope everyone had fun today!

Something to think about for my AP class. Thoughts? 🤔🤔🤔

Such a super fun time playing songs I grew up with. Thanks for the opportunity!!!

🗣️ Introducing our 2024 Teacher of the Year: Tina Yu-Wong!! Ms. Yu-Wong has spent 26 years at Walnut High School educating & inspiring young minds! Congrats Ms. Yu-Wong on this prestigious honor! Take a look how we surprised her today with the help of her Science colleagues 🥳

Late post but got the honor to celebrate two students earning a scholarship from San Gorgonio ACS through the Chemistry Olympiad. Proud of what these two accomplished in such a short time. They finished in the top 8 in our region and qualified to take the National Exam.

Been pretty MIA due to AP testing and finishing up my National Board portfolios. What a relief that to be done with them this past weekend. If you are interested in pursuing this, read this blog from Melissa ⇌ Hemling chemedx.org/blog/my-hero%E… It’s helpful to get a chem teacher’s perspective.

Another year in the books but I didn’t realize the significance of the c/o 2024. Coming out of the pandemic (a low point of my life), everyone needed to adjust helped me get back to feeling like myself again as a teacher. C/o 2024, you have a special place in my heart! Congrats!

You will be missed, Kelli Gile! You have done so much to promote all the awesome things happening in Walnut Valley USD! Blessings to the next chapter of your awesome story!

O Mg! Day 1 of my 19th year teaching. 3 sections of AP on top of an Honors and IB HL/SL section. It’s going to be a busy year!

This is a huge honor for me acs.org/pressroom/news…

2 quick thoughts: (1) Tom is a wonderful chemistry ambassador; this award is so well-deserved. 🧪👨‍🔬 (2) If you love #chemistry or #ChemEd or #scicomm , and you’ve never heard of Tom before, have you been living under a rock? 😆 #iteachchem #chemfam youtu.be/g82oYl6QGIY?fe…

Pretty on point. Vote!!!
