“We need to elevate our respect and the skills for teachers at high-poverty schools. Training and support for an add-on credential could go far to contribute to the stability and quality of the teachers who serve our most fragile students.” Yes, yes, yes! https://t.co/u2LHRdXJ7U
When we begin to treat human beings as “other” for any reason, we lose our humanity. Thank you, President Obama, for the reminder that no matter what your immigration status is, you still deserve to be treated with respect and dignity.
Thirteen years ago, my administration acted to protect young people who were American in every single way but one: on paper.
DACA was an example of how we can be a nation of immigrants and a nation of laws. And it’s an example worth remembering today, when families with similar backgrounds who just want to live, work, and support their communities, are being demonized and treated as enemies.
We can fix our broken immigration system while still recognizing our common humanity and treating each other with dignity and respect. In fact, it’s the only way we ever will.
@KellyGToGo Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut. A classic. Pair it with 2081 - the short film version. The ending is different than the ss and lends to a great compare and contrast!
Love, love, love this post. All kids can think critically…even if they can’t read or write or speak a specific language. Gain trust and a student will take a risk for you - and for themselves!
Great education systems don't just invest in “gifted and talented” students. They bring out the best in all students.
Top schools create opportunities for teachers to specialize in their students—not only their subjects.
Deeper relationships unlock hidden potential.

SO excited I got to see these girls KILL IT at their volleyball game today. I wish I made it to more - this was their last one -but it was so fun to see these former @PoeMiddleSchool students as @AnnandaleAtoms high school students ♥️
How many of us try to make life “easier” for our own children - or even for our students if you are a teacher? This book is exactly what we need to help change the trend. I write a 6 word memoir with students -mine: Adversity led to a better life. Everyone needs that opportunity!
