Real, sustained change is incremental, but events can can change the trajectory of that path if we are open to it.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

I wrote out some thoughts on how to make this moment a real turning point to bring about real change––and pulled together some resources to help young activists sustain the momentum by channeling their energy into concrete action. https://t.co/jEczrOeFdv

@CADREK12
Rather than interview teachers about practices our RPP with BCPS aims to spread, we are interviewing them about experiences with virtual instruction. These conversations are interesting, fruitful and needed. Thanks to @BCPS_DIGDeeper ! @Hewlett_Found
