      Our District doesn’t get funds, and we only have bus passes for transportation. However, some of our campuses are in rural areas and don’t have bus lines. Arizona

      Superpower is empathy! Kryptonite is wanting to push further for a solution that may be out of my control.

        Yes Richada B (@rbrown)! It is difficult sometimes to let go of things we have no control over.

      My super power is my compassion, but my kryptonite is not having enough time to do all of the things. I’m the K-12 School counselor, MV Liaison, Foster Care Liaison and SEL Team lead for the building so there is just not enough time for everything.

      Superpower: like Sarah D, I’m not afraid to ask for help.
      Kryptonite: I will be new to this role in July, so I know only what I learned as a principal supporting students.
