A3: Branding is not a strong suit of mine. How about “Krazy Kama Kares” It's weak, I know. I'll support the rest of y'all. #EinsteinFellows22

@TomJenkinsSTEM @TheRealChandaJ Totally agree, Tom! I have similar thoughts about pathways that bridge high school to college or career; choice in elem & MS is just as important.

A2: Currently 20+ states are implementing HS math pathways that include rigorous alternatives to Calculus-only mindset. I’d like to see the feds support this work, as it values multiple career pathways, applied learning, and student choice. #EinsteinFellows22

@TheRealChandaJ Oh, I LOVE this, Chanda!

A1: SEL legislation at the state level is encouraging and will help with belonging in schools. Legislative policy that names the importance of teaching about equity and inclusion in schools would also help with belonging. Looking forward to hearing other ideas! #EinsteinFellows22

Hi - Kama Almasi from the central Oregon Coast! HOT topics for me are science and STEM in elementary school, and integration/convergence/applied learning opportunities to engage students and make education relevant. #EinsteinFellows22
