We're 2 days from the next CDC guideline: "Hey, man. You do you."

Tune in to @CNNnewsroom tonight at 8 pm ET as our very own @BeckyPringle, a 30-year science teacher, talks with @PamelaBrownCNN about how we follow the science, keep people safe and work to keep our students and educators in-person in classrooms amidst the Omicron surge.

From one cruciverbalist to another… happy National Crossword Puzzle Day, Kansas! If you need me, I’ll be here.

Now is the perfect time for administrators to show "We're all on the same team" and "Classrooms are the most important part of school" by getting out of their offices and filling those empty substitute spots.

Teachers are stressed out, and it's causing some to quit.

We are a team – parents, educators, and administrators. It's all our responsibility to make sure our classrooms are safe for learning.

On November 20th, we honor the memories of all trans people who lost their lives to transphobia. Hate has no place in Kansas, and we will continue creating a society that protects and respects all transgender people. #TransDayOfRemembrance

[NEA @NEAToday]

Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we mourn every trans person who has been lost to hateful violence—each life unique, special, irreplaceable. Together, we must reject discrimination & bias to create a world where every trans student & educator is safe, supported & loved.

[Secretary Miguel Cardona @SecCardona]

It’s more than just teachers that take care of our students each day – education support professionals including custodial & food service staff, nurses and more, help students succeed every day. Thank you for all you do for our schools. #WeLoveOurESPs

I think I'd enjoy yoga, if I could do my first yoga class — maybe first 100 classes — in private, just me & an instructor, in a remote village somewhere, perhaps on the Moon, and the instructor died as soon as I got the hang of it. Otherwise, doesn’t seem worth the embarrassment

[Todd Nesloney @TechNinjaTodd]

It’s just incredibly heartbreaking to watch how just 12 months ago educators were being celebrated. Now, across the country educators and leaders are vilified left and right over lies by crazy extremists.

If only people knew how much of ourselves we pour into this job.

.@POTUS says we must call for vaccinations "to protect our youngest, most precious Americans and give parents that comfort. Vaccination requirements in schools are nothing new." Catch the highlights of Biden's speech ⤵️

[NEA @NEAToday]

Vaccination, masking, and testing. These are the things we need to keep students in schools and make sure everyone in the school community is safe. Let’s follow the science, not the politics.
