The ultimate goal of education is to create a better society. If educators are not advocating for social justice, we’re not doing our job.
White educators... if we don’t understand how current events represent the legacy of white supremacy, we need to work harder at it.
In this unprecedented moment, encouraging kids to be creative and to think outside-of-the-box becomes even more important.

It’s amazing to see how dedicated educators are in finding ways to continue learning & connection with students. I worry about kids & families with minimum to no devices/WiFi. It is impossible to reach all kids equitably. Will we create a larger equity gap with remote learning?
This is an important message for students and adults who take standardized tests. At best a test may communicate were you are....but it never communicates what you can be! #TheTenMinutePrincipal
@msbaucum @PrinceEa Making connections with our students had to be a top priority. If your students feel connected and feel that they can trust you then they are able to learn so much more.
Schools focus on testing and scores rather than truly educating students. Many students go home at the end of the day & feel they haven’t learned anything or anything of value. Schools need to focus more on skills that kids need the rest of their lives. #UABEEC301SP20@PrinceEa
