Georgia becomes first state to release school safety resource aligning student supports and threat assessment.
The state's Department of Education just released a new school safety resource that connects student support systems with behavioral threat assessment (BTAM).
Developed with the U.S. Secret Service's National Threat Assessment Center and the National Center on PBIS, the guide gives schools a practical roadmap to spot warning signs early and connect students with support BEFORE a situation escalates.
The goal is to catch concerns early, respond the right way, and keep every kid safe and supported.
👉 Parents: ask your child's school if they have a behavioral threat assessment team in place, and how students get connected to support. Every school should have an answer.

I'm happy to share that @fema is awarding more than $38 million in reimbursements to North Carolina. This will help Western North Carolina continue its recovery efforts following Helene. Thanks to President Trump and @SecMullinDHS, this is another positive step for our state.
The war in Iran has now cost us $29 billion, NOT including the cost to repair bases damaged by Iran, according to the Pentagon. That cost could cover:
- The entire border wall
or
- Free school lunches for every American child for about 3 years
or
- 2 years of ICE operations
or
- Fund the EPA for 25 years
or
- Entire VA mental health budget for 15 years
or
- Fully fund the coast guard for 4+ years
or
- Head Start for 10+ years
or
- Cancel all federal student loan interest for roughly two years
or
- Universal pre-K for 3-4 years
We've spent more on 10 weeks of war with Iran than we spend on the entire federal judiciary — every court, every judge, every clerk — over roughly 15 years.
@clifftayloriv@WortmanZackery and I saw you celebrating on tv again last night! What an incredible life you’ve created for yourself! I’m so happy for you! I always felt Zack was so lucky to have your dad as a youth basketball coach, and he clearly raised an amazing son, too!
@Topbin90 The first half was awful! There was no urgency & creativity to energize the fans, so it got kind of boring. Toklomati’s PK miss was embarrassing, given his theatrics beforehand & it cost us. Subs were made too late. The energy finally picked up when Goodwin & Aloko came on.
