Employee Spotlight 🌟 Learn what makes the staff at Pasco High School world-class! Meet Kristin Roberts, Assistant Principal at PHS. "Kristin has a heart of gold and many do not see the great things she does in her time outside of work. For the past 3 years, during the summer, Kristin has prepared meals and taken time to visit many of our homeless population in the downtown Tampa area. She prepares each meal so that she can distribute individual meals and cold water to people in need without judgment or bias. Kristin has become known to many of the 'residents' in the downtown area and they anticipate and look forward to her arrival every summer. She shares a mutual respect with them, remembers their personal stories, and appreciates that they all have their own unique personalities. She has always worked to meet the needs of her students both as a counselor and now as an Assistant Principal, but she also recognizes the needs in our community and spends hours working to meet those needs, as well." Way to go, Kristin! You are world-class! #PascoProud #WorkPasco #pascocountyschools #YouAreWorldClass

Creating The Future of Entertainment Sustainability | Historically Accurate Educational Experience Park | Helping Legends CRE8 Eternity | Haunted Texas Theme Park Destination Resort & Convention Center
Dear Williamson County Community, We are thrilled to present “Haunted Texas,” a project born from the spirit of our heritage and a vision for our future. This is much more than a theme park—it’s a beacon for economic growth and a catalyst for unity in our community. Economic Revitalization: “Haunted Texas” promises a wave of job opportunities, from the craftsmen shaping our attractions to the tech wizards behind our virtual experiences. We are not just building a park; we are uplifting local businesses and crafting a tourist destination that will channel vital revenue back into our beloved county, enhancing public services and infrastructure. Social Harmony: At its core, “Haunted Texas” will be a gathering place—a venue for events that weave the fabric of our society tighter, fostering pride and solidarity. Our interactive exhibits aren’t just about thrills; they’re about education, about delving into the depths of our state’s past to bring to light the stories that shaped us. A Safer Community: Our youth are the architects of tomorrow, and through “Haunted Texas,” we offer them a path away from the crossroads of delinquency. By partnering with justice programs, we’re also paving a road to redemption for ex-offenders, believing in second chances and the power of rehabilitation. Family Bonds: Families are the cornerstone of Williamson County, and our park is dedicated to creating a space where they can forge lifelong memories. We understand the challenges faced by families of incarcerated individuals and extend our support to them, aiming to bring solace and joy into their lives. Preventing Crime, Promoting Trust: We stand with the Texas Criminal Justice Coalition in the belief that prevention is pivotal. “Haunted Texas” will actively support diversion programs for at-risk youth and collaborate with law enforcement to build bridges of trust between them and the communities they protect. “Haunted Texas” is more than a name; it’s a commitment to our county’s prosperity, security, and heart. Join us as we turn this vision into a legacy for generations to come. Sincerely, AmyBTrippinYo on X #HauntedTexas #WilliamsonCounty #CommunityFirst #EcoFriendlyFun #TexasJobs #LocalTourism #HistoricTexas #FamilyEntertainment #SocialImpact #JusticeReform #CrimePrevention #YouthEngagement #EconomicGrowth #SustainableDevelopment #TexasPride

Intergenerational neighborliness is a win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win-win. Our ages from four years old to 86, and that heterogeneity is key to our collective thriving. The youngin’s offer energy, delight, and a sense of hope. The elders offer perspective, wisdom, and remind us to slow down and move at the speed of real relationships. Everyone in between has various gifts, skills, and ways of shaping their days and contributions. Neighbors of different generations not only need one another, but they delight in one another. And that delight is an inexhaustible resource of vitality.
Here's what Courtney E. Martin has learned from ten years of living in an intentional community in Oakland, California.

In 2018, we started producing Community Profiles for all 171 school districts in Kentucky. The objective was, and still is, to get key data into the hands of community members as a way to encourage them to be part of the solution to improving education outcomes. With data, communities could be part of designing solutions to the unique needs of families and students locally. This week we released the 4th edition - now called Groundswell Community Profiles. They include data along the "path to a larger life", coupled with trend data and a snapshot of demographic differences, and socioeconomic information to contextualize the environment. It's a brief 4-page snapshot. The Groundswell Community Profiles are meant to be used as a starting point to spur larger conversations and action. When we bring communities to the table, in hyper-local settings, with shared aspirations, innovative solutions will be found. We look forward to amplifying, elevating, and networking those innovations all across Kentucky - building a #GroundswellKY one community at a time. Find the latest profiles: https://lnkd.in/dF8xKxJ2 #placemaking #economicmobility #communityimpact #BigBoldFuture Seth Kaplan Rich Harwood Christian J. Motley
The 2024 Groundswell Community Profiles, which provide an overview of the state of education in each Kentucky school district, are available now! To support community engagement in education, the Prichard Committee publishes Groundswell Community Profiles to put local data on educational progress directly in the hands of Kentuckians like you.

On June 30th, I will be visiting South Carolina's CAMP BURNT GIN -- an S.C. Department of Health & Environmental Control-funded overnight summer camp in Sumter County for children, teens, and young adults with physical disabilities and chronic illnesses -- to learn more about this wonderful and unique place, which I have been told has a tremendous origin story that I look forward to hearing about "live." This visit is chance to: 1. Understand the camp and its campers' needs during emergencies; 2. Help the camp and its campers understand the role of Mobile Medical professionals in maintaining their health, safety, and wellbeing; and 3. Introduce the camp community and Responders across SC to the R.U.S.H. Initiative -- "Rare & Under-Served Health" -- whose mission is to ensure that when you roll up to care for a child or young person in distress, you have critical clinical context about their special health needs and wishes, and the ability to share your insights with the next link in the patient's care chain, AT NO COST. (The R.U.S.H. Initiative's national training partner is SC's own Thorne Ambulance Service.) What could be better than these Children & Youth with Special Health Needs (CYSHNs) and their families feeling SO much more comfortable now that they've interacted with a firefighter, medic, or public safety officer outside of a moment of crisis? Please RSVP via the form below (and in the comments) -- we'll follow up with additional logistical details. SPACE IS LIMITED, but if you cannot attend, please tell a friend or colleague who you think might want to join us for this meaningful community experience. All Responder service types and levels are invited. Thanks!

President & CEO | Leadership Strategist, Speaker, and Transformation Expert | Empowering Women to Lead with Purpose and Prevent Burnout | Champion for Child Protection
A Personal Note on Keeping Our Children Safe This Summer As the CEO of the Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center, I often share professional advice on child safety. But more importantly, as a mother and grandmother to two adorable little boys, I've lived these precautions every day. With summer upon us, many families are gearing up for camps and sleepovers, and it’s crucial to remember that you are your child’s primary advocate and protector. Last week, I had the privilege of speaking on the Morning on Merit Street about summer safety, where I elaborated on the following tips based on both my professional experience and personal practice: 1. For Camp Drop-offs: Ask About Ratios: What is the camper to counselor ratio? Inquire About Safety Protocols: What does the background check and training process for counselors involve? Understand Communication Protocols: How will you be notified if an incident occurs? 2. For Sleepovers: Know the Environment: Who else might have access to your child during the stay? Who might visit the house during the sleepover? Ask About Plans: Where will they go while your child is in their care? 3. Empower Your Child: Teach your children that if they ever feel uncomfortable, it's okay to speak up and remove themselves from a situation. Ensure they know how to reach you at any time and understand you are always available for them. These aren’t just professional tips; they’re actions I took to ensure the safety of my own children. As we enjoy the summer, let's make it safe and memorable for our little ones by being proactive and informed. #ChildSafety #SummerSafety #ParentingTips #Leadership #ChildAdvocacy
