Just absolutely unreal seeing this level of greatness from each of the last 7 decades on the ice here at Magness. Nothing but chills right now.

[Todd Dickson @rtodddickson]

Thanks @StaffordBrizard for the shout-out, and more importantly for championing the idea that we all, kids and adults alike, need support in our continual human development. :)

When this player's hijab started falling off to reveal her hair, her opponents gathered around to provide cover while she fixed it.
This is our mood today.
When one of us needs us: We stop. We huddle up. We protect each other.
I love the soccer. I love women.

This is exciting. It's nice to be in a place where ignorance about charter schools isn't the problem. I'm looking forward to seeing my people.

[NashvilleEdReform @NashvEdReform]

Great effort to increase parent awareness of / engagement in @MetroSchools.

This was our best year ever in terms of trajectory changing results. I am most proud of how consistently strong results were - class after class, grade level after grade level. Great job team Valor :)

Really interesting to see the demographic differences between these 3 public @MetroSchools options:
-Magnet low income is only 9%, ELL is only 2%, SWD is only 3% !
-Charter low income, minority, ELL numbers are all higher than zoned. SWD is 2 ppts lower.

2/3rds of voters place high priority on providing public school options that include access to public #charterschools, magnets, and career academies. Still, there were differences in prioritization by race/ethnicity w/ Black/White gap at 25 % points. #NationalCharterSchoolsWeek
