It's Teacher Appreciation Week and we can't wait to celebrate our 700+ amazing educators! Kicking off today with a special shout out to our elementary teachers ❤️
Thank you, @janenekrent, for making ESC an annual stop! @Northelem2 Handchimes is a holiday season highlight, bringing cheer to all who hear. And it's always great to see you!

This sweet 2nd grader of mine has big dreams to be a farmer one day. Today he got to “help” plant soybeans at our farm! I don’t know who was more excited about this...him or me!
Today, I am directing every state to prioritize educators for vaccination. We want every educator, school staff member, and child-care worker to receive at least one shot by the end of this month.
It’s time to treat in-person learning like the essential service that it is.
Supts, sch bds, assns, & health depts are working w/ Ts, staff, & parents on local reentry.
With start of July/Aug & COVID trend data, more conversations & plan adjustments are expected.
Schs cannot & should not be bullied from DC into ignoring safety concerns. Not helpful.
