@DiyanaJones & @DwanWill_DEP presenting in Dallas @GreatCitySchls. Without apology, they are speaking about the impact and importance of tools that measure and monitor (racial) equity in the schoolhouse. THIS IS THE REAL WORK. @JCPSDEP1 @jcpsky

[Dwan Williams @DwanWill_DEP]

It was an impactful experience presenting with @DiyanaJones and another presentation with @Marlon_Miller23 & @clevenupe

Thanks for @jdm1906 and @JCPSSuper leadership and support for DEP’s work! #disruptive

Thanks @GreatCitySchls for allowing @DwanWill_DEP and I to present our work on The Continuum of Equity-Centered Practices!! In the words of our Chief Equity Officer @jdm1906, “All staff should be willing, able, and proven to lead with equity in mind.”

Thanks for coming to tell your story and support our efforts to recruit the talented future educators from @KyStateU

[Diyana Jones 💕💚 @DiyanaJones]

Today I attended the @JCPSKY @KyStateU Teacher Recruitment Event and ran into several students that I taught as freshman at KSU and one was my WMSFA baby! They’re now seniors and ready to start student teaching! Hopefully, they’ll join us in JCPS soon! My heart is happy!!!! 💚💛

We had the opportunity to visit new Principal @SaraAdams73 at Slaughter yesterday. Their PLCS are doing great work around equity and high level questioning! @DwanWill_DEP @JCPSDEP1

ATTENTION @JCPSKY board meeting tomorrow re: transportation. You can COME OR WATCH via live-stream.

@JCPSDEP1 WAS to do a community REAP this Thurs.

BTW, the REAP is meant to be a guardrail. It was chosen by the JCBOE to help them make (racially) equitable decisions.
