Just a "small" example of the quality and excitement our USAEL/Rally Cry team can bring to your event!

[Rally Cry @teamRallyCry]

This is what it looks like when champions are forged. 🔥

FORGE 2026 brought the best scholastic esports talent in North America to the Boeing Center at Tech Port San Antonio — and you made it unforgettable.

11 titles. Hundreds of competitors. Three days of competition, learning, and community.
Working with @ecac_esports, @officialEGF, @neccgames, @R20_Esports, & @CollegiateR6 is a highlight for all of us at Rally Cry!

A massive thank you to the Army National Guard for making it all possible. This event exists because of your commitment to students, education, and the next generation of leaders.

See you at FORGE 2027. 👊

[US Academic Esports League @USAELesports]

Congratulations to our Spring `26 Champions! 🏆

After battling through 9 weeks of fierce matches, these teams have earned a USAEL Open crown and $20,000 in prizing from @LenovoLegion and @USAELesports. GGWP!

[High School Esports League @HSELesports]

This is an excellent opportunity to spotlight the standouts in our space! Check it out! 🏆

[Chris Shima @EsportsShima]

Love this! My fellow educators, just because achieving these may be something you've never experienced, knowing that these are moments your students have experienced provides a clear path to "meeting them where they are." And they will appreciate you validating their interests!😊

[Generation Esports @JoinGenEsports]

Scholastic gaming offers a unique blend of social connection and valuable learning opportunities.
It's the best of both worlds! 🤝

#WeekofAI is here! See you Wednesday!

[Chris Shima @EsportsShima]

Excellent use case, @msmitty34 ! Taking care of the students needs and helping us be more effective as teachers! 😁

[Chris Shima @EsportsShima]

@msmitty34 @GetSchoolAI That's so cool Matt! I often say the same thing when I interact with the SchoolAI Spaces as well! 😄

[Chris Shima @EsportsShima]

Loved hearing your story @farmerfaubs ! Really enjoyed presenting at the Summit with you. Thanks for your support and let's do it again!

[Farmer Faubs 🤠 @farmerfaubs]

When you get to share how @GetSchoolAI is being used in the classroom with @Shima_SchoolAI you know it’s going to have both of us pumped! 🔥
Fantastic job 👏🏻 Al for Edu Summit

[Chris Shima @EsportsShima]

Thanks @BeckyKeene and, being a teacher for over 18 years, that is exactly the same reason why I get excited to talk about SchoolAI with my fellow educators! Students first! 😊

[Becky Keene 🦋 @BeckyKeene]

Jumped in the live session for AI for Education Summit today and of course what do I see first?! I love listening to @GetSchoolAI talk about how their platform was designed: with students first!

[Matt Miller 🗑️ @jmattmiller]

🤖 Wish you could be in 20 places at once in your classroom?

Custom chatbots from @GetSchoolAI could be the answer!

Check out our new post with 10 awesome ways to use them, from chatting with authors to time-traveling adventures.

[Andrew Davies, M.Ed. 🔜 ISTE @EduTechWizard]

What do you all think?

Would you like to see assessments become more conversational more often
or am I getting too excited?

With tools like @GetSchoolAI ’s Spaces, we are heading in the right direction!

#ai #aiforeducation #aiforstudents

[Chris Shima @EsportsShima]

9000 standards-aligned AI Spaces ready to engage and support your students! Busy indeed! 😁
@HollyClarkEdu @GetSchoolAI #edtech #schoolai

[Holly Clark - The AI Infused Classroom @HollyClarkEdu]

Wow - 9000 new spaces aligned by common core state standards. With state specific standards coming soon.

@GetSchoolAI has been BUSY.

Maybe this is why this tool has become the most talked about AI tool every where I go.

[Chris Shima @EsportsShima]

@Mr_Rablin @GetSchoolAI So glad you are digging the "Space For Every Standard" feature Tyler! So fun to explore those!

[Tyler Rablin @Mr_Rablin]

Okay, so @GetSchoolAI just released a bunch of spaces specifically aligned to individual standards. I've only played with a few, but I can see some useful applications for students. I've been impressed at how targeted on specific standards they are.

[Chris Shima @EsportsShima]

Awesome use of @getSchoolAI Jennifer! 😊 Your students look like they are totally engaged!

[Jennifer Gates @jengates395]

2/2 today students began exploring #NationalParks across the US using @epic4kids and @GetSchoolAI. This research project perfectly connects ELA to 5th grade geology & 6th grade geography. Students will pour through fiction & nonfiction to create infographics, a podcast & more!
