For years I have been raising the alarm of the dangers of our current food system. We’re prioritizing corporations feeding us unhealthy products instead of family farmers growing fresh, healthy foods - and we let too many dangerous chemicals flood our food system.
We all must come together to build a system that works for all.
“Every student walks through the door wanting to feel valued. Every child deserves to have at least one adult in this building who knows them by name. We want 100% of our students to feel connected to a teacher in our building,” says the principal of this Nevada middle school. 🧡
.@GovHolcomb If you sign the bill, your legacy will be the governor who deemed school librarians be subjected to FELONY charges because a parent on a power trip or a county prosecutor wanting to throw their weight around decides a book is "inappropriate." A book. /1
When the 100-point grading scale emerged in the 1830s, scores centered around 50.

An attempt to mislead & distract Hoosiers is not beneficial to 95% of us.
I need someone to explain to me why it’s legal for armed, masked men to threaten people who want to vote, but illegal for people to give voters water to drink.
Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.
Googled “banned books” and chose this one. One of the best I’ve ever read. Recommend to anyone, especially those willing to do the work.
Banned books …. SMH.
Some students go an entire day at school without anyone saying their name.
Be the adult who speaks to each student by name.
Everyone loves to hear their name.
