As an elementary teacher I would like to propose that Halloween always be on the last Saturday of October. Who’s with me? Where are my elementary teachers that are not so secretly dreading the next two days?

5 years ago I was against phone bans in K-12.

Fast forward to 2023, I am for every single K-12 school to ban phones.

The independent polling we conducted in 2022 is looking spot-on in light of yesterday's school board elections. A majority of voters oppose removing books from school libraries. Join us to #UniteAgainstBookBans — we're just getting started.

If you believe the claims by people driving the efforts to restrict and ban school library books, that they are only interested in “protecting children” from “sexually explicit material,” do these latest books banned by @katyisd give you any pause?

We just received a company email that longtime NPR correspondent Wade Goodwyn had died - at the age of 63.

Wade’s voice, storytelling, and radio writing was some of all-time favorite listening on NPR.

I was an intern on the national desk and used to study Wade’s stories…

91% of colleges don’t provide accurate info in their financial aid offers.

One of the worst things that some do: making students’ out-of-pocket costs seem cheaper by presenting loans as “free” aid that they won’t actually be responsible for repaying.

We know that when students get to choose what they read, it improves their academic success overall. #FReadom matters.

Librarians believe libraries should serve the varied interests of our students and work hard to make that happen.
