I never did an #introduction post, so it looks like now is a good time.

Hi. I'm Rebecca.

I'm a #teacher, primarily high school English #literacy / #ELA with predominantly second-language speakers. #HabloEspañol. I work in #ChristianEd. I'm interested in everything #education and #pedagogy. Alumna of #ClearTheAir.

My formal training is in #linguistics. I know enough #ASL to get myself into trouble but not out of it. Sign name R-dimple in my local community.

I'm a misfit #Christian who grew up fundamentalist, went liberal Baptist for two years, became a classic case of Young, Restless, and #Reformed (but still Baptist), and am now learning to have no heroes but Jesus. The #Bible is good; #theology is not an intellectual exercise. Holding religious freedom and soul liberty together with a historically Christian sexual ethic. Miss the high church liturgy. #Monasticism-curious. Hate abuse, love survivors. #Missionary sent to the Dominican Republic.

I'm currently learning #photography and currently trying for a year of #WeeklyPhotoChallenge to practice my skills.

It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine. #GoBlue 〽️

@LauraJG Reading the interview, it seems clear that board member was already gunning for the principal and looking for the tiniest technicality.

Also clear that modern "classical education" is just another iteration of segregation academies in #ChristianEd.
