@CatherineG49169 @KTVN Isn’t that law enforcements job?

[Aaron D. Ford @AaronDFordNV]

As a former public school math teacher, I can tell you: that equation doesn’t add up. Working multiple jobs just to get by isn’t how we grow a strong economy or a strong state. So when I take on fraudsters hurting Nevadans, predatory lenders, and corporations that try to take advantage of workers, I’m not just doing my job – I’m fighting for families like mine, like yours, like the ones who built Nevada.

Students who are not proficient readers by third grade are more likely to fall behind academically, face a higher risk of dropping out of school, and experience increased rates of poverty in adulthood.

@VegasTime1 @ClarkCountySch Why? Because they’ve chosen not to profile, harass, and target innocent children who want to learn?

[Mr. Billy the Librarian @3kingvisions]

Hey Twitter..what you see in this picture is two black male librarians that manage a library together in Las Vegas. Black men make up .3% of the library field! I believe that it is important that when people come into my library that they see people who look like them!

@Dr_Science_Wiz @TheCCShowcast @BarbaraBoxer He would! Treyvon literally looked as if he could be related to President Barack Obama. You’re comparing the former president speaking out against a Black boy being shot by someone who was NOT a 1st responder to someone politicizing a natural disaster…

With all the lies being spread about Haitians, I want to share some books for those genuinely searching to understand our past. How did we get here? Why is Haiti time & time again the scapegoat for politicians & the media. These books are helpful. Education is a cure for hate.🇭🇹

For T @MsTourloukis's Ss, setting classroom expectations is a community effort!

[Teacher2Teacher @teacher2teacher]

🧭 When you intentionally center curiosity and questioning in your classroom, there's no telling where your Ss' explorations will take them!
