📢 Have you heard about the @MDCPS "Secure our Future" referendum renewal? Listen to @mdcpsCFO share its importance and impact on the public schools budget.

Important organizing work being done by @PS305Miami @FloridaPolicy and @strongflschools to spotlight how so-called school choice programs divert money from public schools that need it badly. Miami-Dade students deserve better!

This week two beloved Miami elementary schools closed their doors to their students. The choices that led us here are not parents’ choices but legislators’ choices.

The state legislature has gutted public school budgets for private interests.

Randi Weingarten, President of the @AFTunion, is testifying before Congress about the coronavirus response in our schools.

We want lawmakers to fund public education and advance solutions to improve schoolhouse conditions--not scapegoat educators.

New: Last week, 3 Miami-Dade School Board members attended the HB1 signing.

Attending similar events isn't new. But their support of a voucher expansion public school advocates say could hurt districts is at odds with the board’s legislative priorities.

.@MDCPS is presenting voters with a referendum renewal that will appear on the November 8, 2022, election ballot. These funds will allow for the continuation of improvements made to teacher’s compensation & student safety. Thank you to all who attended tonight’s presentation.

@SuptDotres just announced @MDCPS schools will be closed on Wednesday (9/28) and Thursday (9/29).

This moment of national reckoning demands local solutions and action. I have and continue to stand with the call for expanded police accountability, through a community oversight board with the full funding and power to do its job. https://t.co/pYAUC0XWSg

Please read this thread. This young lady details her experience during a protest in DC. There is great potential for educators to use this moment in history to teach our youth that their voices matter.

In our world today, we’re heavily dependent upon each other. It’s essential, therefore, that we cooperate with one another—then we’ll be able to solve many problems. Good relations, heart to heart, are important and necessary—everything depends upon our having a good motivation.

It took @DavidLat, who is now on a ventilator, two visits to the ER with severe respiratory symptoms until he was finally tested for COVID-19. And he's a journalist.

A deep awareness of the goodness of human beings, that they are essentially kind, helpful, and gentle, can give us courage and hope. On a personal level too, such a vision of our basic nature can help promote a greater sense of well-being and connectedness with others.

[P.S. 305 @PS305Miami]

Earlier today our @MiamiSup provided some important updates after the first week of school closures. Thank you to all the people working hard to support of students during this time!

[Miami-Dade Schools @MDCPS]

We want to ensure that all students are able to participate in Distance Learning. Therefore, the deadline to receive a device or exchange an existing one has been extended until Friday, March 20. If you still need a device, please contact your school. #MDCPSLearns
