HUGE PRAISE to all educators who worked this school year to bring the best education possible to all students. They are all so very special. When you see one of these educators, just say thanks.

Thank you to these marvelous, outspoken seniors who are leaving behind a much bigger social justice legacy than just this wonderful mural. Best wishes to you all in the future!

Ramadan Kareem to all who are celebrating! Asking all teachers to recognize this month for Muslim students and supporting them in this time. Please take time to learn more about Ramadan and its purpose. The students will appreciate it. @BurlMASchools #RamadanKareem #bpschat

Co-presidents @sara_s_91 and @sprapti27 at today’s Stop Anti-AAPI Hate Vigil. “We have to do more. Let’s work to empower each other instead of silencing each other.” @bps_equity @BurlMASchools #StopAsianHate #bpschat #StopAAPIHate

[Center for Antiracist Education @antiracist_ed]

We are deeply disturbed by the rise in anti-Asian violence in our country.

As an educator, your antiracist curriculum must include the present and historical realities of Asian Americans, and your antiracist actions must demolish stereotypes and explicitly address bias. Period.
