@SWASTI33B @alt_w_v_g Are you not worried when he replies, “work is too easy & kids don’t ask questions”? Not challenged by teachers, not challenged by other students — that’s not a recipe for growing his intellect or his gifts. The right school might be about more than $$.

@CMBrookePinto Thank you for advancing the importance of standards and guidelines for AI for students, teachers and schools. We'd love to have you come out and see how we are using AI now to support education.

Today we celebrate the warmth, love, encouragement, and grace of mothers and mother figures. As our first teachers, nurses, defenders, and way-makers, mothers fill us with the hope and discipline needed to grow into capable adults.

Proud of our hardworking DC educators!At @FriendshipPCS we’ve seen state test progress year over year. Now the Nation’s Report Card shows all DC is rising. Still much to be done but I hope DC gets its rightfully due recognition. #DCRising #FriendshipProud @OSSEDC @washingtonpost

Thank you @dcpolicycenter. Too often we hear “Students aren’t ready for college! They’re not ready for careers!” Well, they’re not ready for unemployment either. They’re not ready to be untethered from a formal structure after HS. Let’s do the work &put kids on paths to success.

With a late touchdown, @FriendshipFB survives.

History was made as VP Kamala Harris accepted the nomination to run for President. We're incredibly proud that our scholars had the opportunity to meet the Vice President. Moments like these inspire the next generation of leaders. #FriendshipProud

With COVID relief & local funds that prioritized education, students made gains but recovery is far from over - especially in math. As funds expire, schools are joining forces to share best practices & resources so students continue to get what they need. @Empowerk12 #DCMathHub

[Matt Barnum @matt_barnum]

New: Federal Covid funding drove some gains in student learning, but likely not enough to produce a full recovery, new research concludes. https://t.co/AoYvrbupEI

@DCSuptGrant @access2equityed Congratulations! Well-deserved.

[Patricia Brantley @patbrantley]

This is what “grow your own” looks like. Congratulations to Mrs. Richardson! She said she would do it and she did - completing her Bachelor’s in Elementary Education while holding down a full time residency in the classroom. 🥰 #FriendshipProud https://t.co/5XERpLIYuX
