EduCatered: Jacqueline Spivey

Self care to self preservation. More dedicated to daily movement practice, daily yoga/meditation practice.
You have to be honest with your students about how hard it is to just move through life right now. Trade offs, everything takes up space.

My joy is my leadership practice.

On this episode of EduCatered, Shawnee Caruthers is joined by Jacqueline (Jackie) Spivey, a high school chemistry teacher and subject dean at Head-Royce school in Oakland, California. Jacqueline is a lifelong learner and has spent over 12 years in the classroom. She got her doctorate in Biophysical Chemistry at UC Santa Cruz so who knows where we’ll end up!

I really am a huge proponent of joy. Joy is a fundamental concept, construct … it’s in the roots of who I am […]. I am joyful because I am.
Jacqueline Spivey
