Welcome back, teachers! We hope you had a restful Fall Break! Our team kicked off the week with support for Elementary and Secondary Priority Schools, and even squeezed in a campus training! Our teachers are fueling progress with purpose! @medina_dav

Two days of Well-Managed Schools training during intersession! Huge thank you to our dedicated participants for investing their time and energy in strengthening positive behavior supports. 💙 And our training team is getting re-certified, too! #purposefuelsprogress

Two simultaneous trainings. One purpose: empowering educators! 🍎 New Teacher Training: @Scotsdale_YISD 💻 Helperbird Training @CapistranoES Growing skills, building confidence, and equipping our teams with the tools they need to help every student #PurposeFuelsProgress

Purpose fuels progress! Today we celebrate a job well done as we conclude an incredible journey of professional learning and growth. To every educator who showed up, leaned in, and continued to grow for our students, thank you. Your commitment is what moves our mission forward.🚀

Our mission continues! Today, our amazing teachers, elementary/secondary paras came together for 8 JobAlike presentations across 3 locations. Every session was another step toward launching a successful school year, and we’re grateful for the passion they bring to every mission.

Mission accomplished! Today our Special Education team launched learning across 4 incredible training sessions: ⭐ 2 Nonviolent Crisis Intervention (NCI) trainings ⭐ New Teacher Induction ⭐ Itinerant Aides Training. Every role every learner, every mission matters. @medina_dav

Day 2 of New Teacher Induction was all about building strong classroom foundations through Well-Managed Schools. It was a privilege to spend the day with our newest educators, sharing strategies that create safe, structured, and engaging learning environments. @medina_dav

Ohana Games brought the energy, teamwork, and so much joy today 🌺💙 From friendly competition to unforgettable memories @EastwoodHQ showed that ohana means family and family means nobody gets left behind @RealRobRobledo @BrendaChR1 @medina_dav @ESC19SpEd

Excited to welcome our newest SLPA, Krystal Puentes, to the team! 🎉 We’re so glad you’re here and can’t wait to see the impact you’ll make supporting our students.

With overflowing love & gratitude, we honor the life of Roxanne Heard Parker. Roxie’s light, kindness, and fierce advocacy transformed YISD Special Education and touched our entire district. Though deeply missed her legacy of love and compassion will forever guide and inspire us.

Falling into collaboration! 🍂 Today’s Elementary & Secondary Self-Contained PLT sessions focused on safety plans, math, reading, and accessibility. We were joined by our amazing ALPs team to keep the momentum growing! @ALPsDepartment @YISD_SPED @medina_dav @BrendaChR1

Big day for our @YISD_SPED team at the @ESC19SpEd Empowering Perceptions Conference! We proudly presented three different sessions sharing our passion, creativity, and commitment to empowering parents, educators and students alike. @medina_dav @BrendaChR1

A spooktacular day for our assessment and related services teams! We tackled our monthly meetings, Q Global/Interactive trainings, enjoyed a frightfully fun soda and popcorn bar and ended with the sweetest celebration a baby shower for our SLP team’s baby girl-on-the-way! 🎃👻

The Era of Great Leadership. Happy #BossesDay to the director who turns every challenge into a chart-topper. Here’s to 2026 with the debut of our Instructional Specialist Calendar. @medina_dav @YISD_SPED
