We're so inspired by this @KARK4News story about Kanesha Barnes Adams, a former Pine Bluff teacher who's making children’s lives better in her community. Kanesha (@ACEclusivePearl) graduated from @ImpactArkansas, a leadership prep program in our college. https://t.co/mGpm6uwmEk

A team of educators wrote this week in @ArkansasOnline about their work to address teacher shortages and how the 2023 Issues Forum showed them the issue "resonated with educators and policymakers (in) other states." https://t.co/g0escY7pvd #MilestoGo2023@ImpactArkansas

Just like we wouldn't expect someone to take a college course about football, pick up an #NFL playbook, and score a touchdown in their first game, we can't expect current educators to dive into #ScienceOfReading instruction without a good coach, a playbook, and some practice.
Shout-out to @ArkTeacherCorps Fellow and 3rd grade teacher LeAndra Grant for her powerful opening remarks about the importance of the #ScienceOfReading at Wednesday's screening of the documentary film "The Right to Read" with executive producer LeVar Burton! #ATCfamily#ReadAR
