“The biggest risk is in the devaluation and underinvestment in our public education system. The challenge…is how do we stand up for strong public schools...but also build a new vision for where we go with public education.” – @RRodriguez_ED at LFA’s convening. #PublicSchoolProud

Underinvesting in public education means fewer students get served. "We do more with less always..,” said David Law, President @AASAHQ at LFA’s recent convening. “...but when there are fewer of us and when there are fewer resources, fewer kids get served.” #PublicSchoolProud

A simple greeting can help set a positive tone for the entire day. Little things can make a big difference for students. #MentalHealthMatters #PublicSchoolProud

For many students school is more than a place to learn. It’s a safe space that connects them with vital resources. That’s why funding for & access to these supports matters so much. Hear a student's personal story about services that made a crucial difference. #PublicSchoolProud

“Behind every funding stream is a real child & families counting on educators to do the right thing...when schools are fully funded, staffed & supported, opportunity is not rationed but shared” - Nikki Woodward, VP, Md State Education Assoc. at LFA’s recent convening. @NEAToday
