@juliebosman I'm also wondering how Greenville, MS was chosen. We have a 13 cases in the entire county according to our state department of health and other counties in Mississippi have a larger number of cases per 1mil residents. @UChicago also mentioned Greenville. Is that your source?

Hey @ww_us, care to explain the ethics of taking $1.5 million from Mississippi public education funds that really should be going to children in need? I'll wait... https://t.co/QIDrs2AecJ

Less than 5% of eligible children r enrolled n preschool. MS ranks #41 out of all states n terms of investment n early learning. (MS Dept of Ed, 2017/18; NIEER). Investing in early childhood ed is investing in student success K-12. #FundingMatters #40days40facts #pastors4mskids

MS experiencing a teacher shortage so severe that some districts using online programs in place of teachers. Students find the programs difficult 2 navigate, feel left on their own w/no 1 to help them understand complex material. #FundingMatters #40days40facts #pastors4mskids

[Pastors for MS Children @pastors4mskids]

#MSLeg polls consistently show that Mississippians want more funding for public schools. Most recently a January Millsaps-Chism poll found that 65% of Mississippians believe public school funding is too low. #FundingMatters #40days40facts #pastors4mskids

[Pastors for MS Children @pastors4mskids]

In last 7 years, MS public schools have suffered their worst underfunding ever. As people of faith we believe EVERY child deserves the best MS can offer and this is not our best. We can and must do better. #FullyFundedPublicSchools #No2Vouchers #40days40facts #pastors4mskids

The only thing more detrimental than a student failing a class...is passing the class having learned nothing. #edchat #ShowMePD19 #MAESP19

One of my favorite parts about @report4america is sharing my love of audio with young people in the #MississippiDelta

We also talked about our favorite @MPBOnline shows and what microphone you’d use for an ASMR video 🎧📻🎙
