Thank you for being an awesome research partner!

Thank you to People for Public Education's @Mxhumanizingedu and Samir Hathout for this op-ed on school attendance and systemic barriers.

Schools must dismantle colonial policies and work to remove barriers to attendance.

I want to be very clear about this: 2SLGBTQI+ Canadians – in Alberta and across the country – deserve to be treated with respect, and they should be able to be who they are and love whom they love without fear.

To the members of Edmonton’s 2SLGBTQI+ community, who we heard from yesterday afternoon: Thank you for speaking so candidly about your fears, your concerns, and your ideas. We are here for you, and we’ll always work with you to build a better future.

@MmeLockhartLDSB You do realize that the things you have mentioned are only a small fraction of the writing process.

@teachergoals Wait a minute- isn’t the premise of this the epitome of a critical thinker. 🧐

[Colleen (They/She) @Mxhumanizingedu]

@FixingEducation Perhaps the education of educators needs to be centralized on emotional interaction, how to create secure attachments, adult supremacy and the epistemology of teacher believes (unpacking our bias and privilege)

@C_Hendrick Sounds like imperial hubris to me 🤨

[Colleen (They/She) @Mxhumanizingedu]

@PublicEdMB It’s doesn’t end. We are constantly being attached. It’s dehumanizing.

[People For Public Education @PublicEdMB]

Dozens of Sask. teachers sign petition calling for schools to not follow province's pronoun law

"We will continue to use the practice of letting students have autonomy over their identity."

In 🇨🇦 edu, barriers to decolonizing leadership lie in the systemic perpetuation of imperial hubris—privileged positions that overlook the rights of those w/ less power
Existing colonial structures hinder decolonization efforts and foster cultural imperialism w/in edu institutions

[Colleen (They/She) @Mxhumanizingedu]

Exploring the gap between policy goals and real-world impact sparks vital reflections on the fundamentals of our educational administration and leadership.

It urges us to delve into how existing structures sustain systemic challenges, fortifying long-standing power imbalances.

@MattRhoads1990 Phones are not the problem. As much as we want a silver bullet for student disengagement banning pocket commuters will not solve the issue.
