Affirm them. Love them. Connect w/ who they are with materials & curriculum who share similar experiences & identities.

[NEA @NEAToday]

Every student has a multitude of identities that shape how they feel entering school each day.

How can we, as educators, ensure our schools support each of those identities so that each of our students can learn and flourish? #NEARA

Along with the HATE HB 2238 perpetuates, thanks to the Kansas House and the Senate, my amazing athletically talented daughter will not be playing sports in High School. I will NOT subject my child to a physical inspection of her genitals because y’all are transphobic. #ksleg

Friends, fam, union siblings, and pro-public education supporters, VOTE NO on the H sub for SB113.   Both Democrat and Republican legislators are considering to vote yes on this bill.  

Urge them to VOTE NO!

Rep Younger: “You can do something today to support public education and that is by voting no on Senate Bill 83.” #ksleg #ksed

[emerson hoffzales @mxhoffzales]

@lizannpatton Nope! Not what is being said. Public dollars must go to public schools.

Teacher here who didn’t hand out packets & I offered office hours until 9 PM. Many educators in my district were just as flexible & engaging. The disconnect of Rep. Landwehr is real…

[Rep. Linda Featherston @Linda4Kansas]

Attention teachers! Speaker at the well just said you were handing out packets during the pandemic and not checking your computers. That’s certainly not what I saw. What say ye @kneanews? #ksleg #ksed

Senate Ed Chair Baumgardner asks for examples of when private schools rejected students. Game On’s Judith Deedy provides at least six examples off the top of her head. #ksleg #ksed
