Wow

[Michael J. Hicks @HicksCBER]

Mitch Daniels major policy goal was to increase Hoosier per capita incomes. We are worse off over the past dozen years, yet only one candidate is mentioning this. How could that be?

There is one reason for this; educational attainment.

[U.S. Department of Education @usedgov]

When the Founding Fathers signed the Declaration of Independence 248 years ago, they set us on a path towards the promises of life, liberty, & the pursuit of happiness.

Today, we celebrate & continue that work so those promises can be enjoyed by all.

Happy #IndependenceDay!

Happy Independence Day! As you enjoy the holiday with family and friends let's not forget one of our most precious freedoms: the freedom to organize and raise your voice, on and off the job.

[AFT @AFTunion]

Happy 4th! Enjoy time with your family and friends. Eat some good food. Thank the workers who might not get the day off. And remember that our freedom and independence should never be taken for granted. #4thofJuly

WHY ARE TEACHERS LEAVING THE PROFESSION?

•Inadequate preparation for new teachers
•Lack of support
•Class sizes
•Low salaries
•Lunch & prep times are too short
•Better opportunities elsewhere
•Student behaviors with inadequate consequences

MUST DO BETTER! #EdChat

There wouldn't be a #WorldMusicDay without music educators!

From first introducing musical concepts, to leading performance groups, to teaching the next generation of music educators, thank you for sharing the joy of music with your students at every step of their education.
