@SpringfieldNEA @Ray0451 @officialSPS But he did do it without alienating his own members causing them to leave membership as many have since you pulled this. Many of us saw this coming. You aren’t getting our input and then claiming you speak for us. No one asked members for their feelings on this! @MissouriNEA

[Melody Netzer @BookNetzer]

I gave a small amount to this, because we needed help when Bel was diagnosed with kidney disease. So many others did too. It made a much bigger difference. Small acts can change the world!!

@BethEngelhart @mpearce62 @RepublicSchools Can’t wait to vote yes on this!

[Melody Netzer @BookNetzer]

Kids have already been through so much this year. The last thing they need is to take a stressful, ineffective standardized test. This is my personal belief and opinion!

@Dee_Bills @DrSTT Love seeing reading promoted like this!!

[Melody Netzer @BookNetzer]

@KelMyrick That’s a solid plan too!

[Melody Netzer @BookNetzer]

@KelMyrick Not just you. I didn’t sleep well last night and even though I’m virtual on Wednesday, I’ll somehow still worry. Be safe, and don’t forget a blanket for the chilly library if you have to go in!

@cicely_woodard @Champion4Chldrn Congratulations!

@USATODAY @USATODAY you should delete and correct this blatant misquote! She said Black Women. Who I am incredibly grateful for today!

Please teach this in schools. Acreage does not vote. People do. This is how election results should be displayed.

Our schools can’t wait– we need the Senate to pass the next COVID-19 relief package now and include at least $175 billion for K-12 schools @RoyBlunt @hawleymo #FundEducation #DemandSafeSchools @nassp @moassp

[Melody Netzer @BookNetzer]

Agreed! It would be good to see some of our reps actually vote to fund the education system during all of this.

[Bill Powers, Ed.D. @DrPowersKHS]

Looming state budget shortfalls mean more assistance is needed for K-12 schools beyond what was provided in the CARES Act.

@USRepLong please pass another stimulus package with at least $175 billion for K-12 schools. #DemandSafeSchools @nassp @moassp

@KelMyrick @midwestmomts It’s sad to see daily evidence of this truth. There are always people who care but it seems to be getting harder to find them.

[Melody Netzer @BookNetzer]

@TLT16 So proud to be a librarian after reading this!

[Melody Netzer @BookNetzer]

Really enjoying the @sljournal Summit webinar session on Building Community for Connection & Learning! Thanks @AngelaCasteel1 for the opportunity!

Wise words

[Steve Inskeep @NPRinskeep]

Guide to upsetting election stories:
1. Wait before sharing.
2. People want to manipulate you.
3. What's the source?
4. Is it a news org with editors?
5. Looks big on Twitter, but is it just a local incident?
6. Repeat #1. Anything truly important will still be there in an hour.
