Hi everyone. There's a clone account going around claiming to be me. I am the real DC and I am now standing up?

Well, #ShrugCon is only a month away and the response so far has been amazing. We’ve got over 250 people receiving the newsletter, and over 100 registrants for the conference.

My 15 year old is wondering about calling teachers ‘sir’ and ‘miss’. It’s the custom in her school, but the two don’t feel balanced to her. Thoughts?
