@Slate@deray@tayloru Additionally, students were surprised by his presence in the line in f receiving their diploma. They had to make a gut reaction in how to respond. Many chose not to shake Pence’s hand or acknowledge him. For many this was equivalent to a slap in the face.
@Slate@deray I was there. I did not walk out to respect my graduate’s wishes. She wore the “We are Taylor too” sticker and made a pledge to love ALL people as Christ would (wearing a button to signify her commitment.) @tayloru held a political rally not a graduation for the first 2 hours.
@Lin_Manuel I’m behind on Twitter and just seeing this. But as I sit in what feels like a very hostile environment (my daughter’s college graduation btw), enduring a speech by Mike Pence, boy did I need to hear this!!!
And now the Vice President is more concerned with bragging on his administrations accomplishments while continuing to turn a blind eye to the un-Christlike behavior of his boss > what does this have to do with these graduates??!!! It’s not about you!!
"if you oppose birth control, don't use it. if you don't like abortion, don't have one. if you don't want to marry someone of the same sex, don't.
but, you have no right to tell others how to live, learn or love."

What other purpose does it serve for his political accomplishments to be touted in the welcome? You have succeeded in taking the focus off the graduates and creating a political campaign.
If you work in a school, you are important to more than just the kids. Staff morale is not usually a function of the students… but of the level of support, encouragement, trust, respect, and camaraderie that exists among the adults in the building.
There’s really nothing to lose by giving a student a second chance.
Nothing. Nada. Zilch.
There’s only the possibility of strengthening a relationship, demonstrating the power of empathy, and instilling a glimmer of hopeful recovery.

I don't know how I missed this before.
Diversity = Let's talk about non-white people and feel good about ourselves!
Equity = Let's talk about how whiteness continues to perpetuate systemic oppression of people of color.
No wonder equity is a bad word.
Just one educator can change the trajectory of a child! A T must believe “I’m on a mission!” NOT “I’m on a job!” Ts on a mission believe in all children regardless... @PrincipalKafele#tabse2019
