TY @stephanie_h for the opportunity to share!
“Now, the question becomes, ‘Do you want to take it?’ You don’t have to.”
That gives more power to students, Lorenzo said, and lets other qualities shine through on their applications.
Some colleges are bringing back SAT and ACT requirements. Others have dropped them permanently in the name of equality and access. So what’s a confused high school junior to do? https://t.co/BDvfnWcTHo
Kermit the Frog delivered an inspiring commencement speech at U. of Maryland:
"Rather than jumping over someone to get what you want, consider reaching out your hand and taking the leap side by side, because life is better when we leap together"

Trump cannot dismantle the Department of Education without the approval of Congress.
He’s breaking the law. Again.
Maybe if he focused more on educating himself instead of attacking education, he’d know that. 🫶
Final: St. Ignatius 65, Dublin 62
@siwildcatsmbb rallies from an early 13-point deficit behind @V1ncecr1sp’s hot shooting.
@HoopsGaels had a good look in the final moments, but it doesn’t fall.
It’s a final from Chase Center in the Bruce-Mahoney Girls Basketball game - SHC 48-SI 58. And with that win and the SI victories in the Fall in Girls Volleyball and Football, SI retains the Bruce-Mahoney trophy for 2024-25.
Proud of @SIscores they battled to the end. Thank you Seniors for all the hard work you put into the program. Thank you SI football parents for all the sacrifices you make for your boys and the football program. #AMDG#WeAreSI
Congrats, Coach Lenny!
He is for and with these "Cardiac Cats" and his staff. What a joy and journey to witness this season through some of the seniors, too. A determined and resilient group!
Enjoy this ship! #GoCats
Love seeing former @SIscores head coach John Regalia on the sidelines. He was one of the first to congratulate @CoachVandermade and congratulated every former player and student that he could find.
“He has been there since I was a little boy, throwing batting practice to me every day. This isn't my moment, it’s my dad’s moment."

The Washington Post hasn’t sat out a presidential endorsement since 1988. Don’t tell me that Kamala Harris isn’t being held to unfair standards when the Los Angeles Times and Washington Post both had owners intervene to stop their own editorial boards from endorsing her. This is not how newspapers are supposed to work. This is the same Washington Post who claimed “democracy dies in darkness.”
No, it dies with clueless, terrible billionaires.
Meet Patrick Gabriel Lorenzo, College Counselor at Saint Ignatius College Preparatory. " Accompanying students to discover points of intersection and helping them weave possibilities is a deliberate and imaginative process," said Lorenzo. https://t.co/KaxyGElT9D @theeduatiner
Here’s to the dedicated HS counselors and college advisors who refuse to deal out false hope to their students, despite considerable pressure to gloss over discussions of college affordability. I’ll be writing much more about how this tension plays out in U.S. high schools.
