Atlantic Ave, Brooklyn CELEBRATES!!!

What Republican lawmakers are doing to our trans youth across the country is disturbing and downright inhumane.

Lots of discussion of teacher unions today, especially from people who want you to believe teachers & students don't have the same essential goals or needs.

You've heard it before because it's true: Teachers' working conditions are student's learning conditions. 🧵

Where is our 2023-2024 calendar? It’s almost May! Families need to make plans. Please release the calendar!

@ChrisMurphyCT Done! I was scrolling twitter specifically to find a way to help from afar. So devastated about everything that is happening in TN!

I have posted this before but ..

26 years ago, a gunman entered
Dunblane Primary School in Scotland,
killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK
govt responded by enacting tight gun
control legislation. In the 9400+ days
since, there have been a total of O
school shootings in the UK.

Do not forget this. NYC Mayor Eric Adams is still fighting to gut NYC public libraries & public schools while the NYPD just blew past their allotted budget by $100 million in overtime alone. $100 million would fund the library & school cuts with tens of millions to spare.

Everyone in America should see this video and be very concerned about all of it

“I’m a public school parent and I don’t like the lies, I don’t like the mismanagements.”

@PeteSikora1 confronting @NYCMayor on his $300 million cuts to education.

Todays briefing was briefly interrupted by this man, who says he’s a public school parent, and criticized @NYCMayor for budget cuts to schools

[Zack Fink @ZackFinkNews]

Source says Assembly one house budget will reject @GovKathyHochul’s proposals on charter schools.
-No elimination of regional cap
-No movement on Zombie Charters

Calls for Foundation Aid increase of $2.6 Billion

[Dignity in Schools Campaign NY @DSC_NY]

As @NYCCouncil, @NYCSpeakerAdams + @JustinBrannan begin the budget oversight process this morning, we call on Council to support school communities, champion our priorities, & negotiate a budget that funds thriving schools. #PoliceFreeSchools #CommunityNotCops

[Dana Goldberg @DGComedy]

If you’re infringing on the 1st amendment to ‘protect children’ from drag queens, but you won’t infringe on the 2nd to keep them from getting shot in schools, you don’t really care about protecting children. You’re just an asshole.

@Jill_Jorgensen Any word on who will replace Banks?? (Assuming the rumors are true…!)

[Bradley Whitford @bradleywhitford]

A party that fetishizes the weapon of choice of mass murderers and celebrates it with lapel pins in the halls of congress is neither Christian or patriotic. It’s evil.

[Brandon Wolf @bjoewolf]

Ok everyone. The book in question has arrived. And I think I may have identified the issue…

@CalltoActivism Accountability

[Susannah @SusannahSperry]

@Nycfinancefan @Jill_Jorgensen @NYCSchools @DOEChancellor SA selectively chooses the students that stay at their schools and push out those that don’t fit their mold. I work at a public school a couple blocks from an SA and every year we get the students mid-year that SA has pushed out.

[Susannah @SusannahSperry]

@Jill_Jorgensen @NYCSchools @DOEChancellor Next they can remove/relocate the current SA schools that are negatively impacting the co-located DOE schools in their shared buildings! Charter schools should never have been co-located in current DOE school buildings.
