I miss my purple classroom, I miss my second floor family, but above all I miss my students!!!! When I’m not messaging my kids or adding virtual field trips/colleges/landmarks they can explore (let me know if you have any more!), I’m adding to my book list. What should I add?

"When students face discrimination in education, they are more likely to end up a part of the homeless population...They are more likely to end up in that cycle of poverty." - @HRC Legal Director @SarahWarbelow speaking to @RepPressley.
