Whew! We did it @AISDMultilingue! Thank you to @Mr_JCE and @utexascoe for an amazing 8th grade Dual Language Milestone event yesterday! Todavía hay trabajo que hacer, pero con una generación como este grupo de 400+ estudiantes bilingües, sí se puede. ¡Ponte las pilas, todos!

[John-Carlos Estrada 🎙️ @Mr_JCE]

@heartoftexaswp is coming back, y'all! This Saturday's workshop was a big success! Numbers are growing back to prepandemic days & the news is spreading again about this community that disrupts systems of inequity & insists on humanizing curriculum. @writingproject @UNT_COE_Dean

Over four years ago, Brian protested with March For Our Lives to demand action on gun violence in our schools and communities.

This week, he was shot in both hands and through his neck by an AR-15 at his school in St. Louis. He jumped out of a window to save his life.
