I couldn't agree more. Critical thinking now more than ever.
(Our recent school curriculum took a stand against critical thinking and instead prioritized recall.)
With the new school year about to begin, let’s remember that not every student went on a family vacation, visited an amusement park, explored nature or met new friends at a sleepover camp in the woods.
Some students summer highlights include having a roof over their head and just enough food to survive.
These students have been counting the days to return to school for safety, consistency, support, friendship, nutrition, and hope for the future!
Thank you for everything you do for our students!

The solution to addressing shortages of teachers to work in increasingly under-resourced and more complex classrooms is not to require less training for teachers.
It’s to fund & resource classrooms properly and value & respect teachers.

"I don’t need goons screaming F-Trudeau and pedophile to win my freedom. I have it, courtesy of a Canadian government installed in a democratic election, more than half a century ago. Canadians don’t need the thugs of Belleville to keep us free."
Creating classroom norms with students develops a sense of belonging. And "when that sense of belonging is there, children throw themselves into the learning environment." ✨
I’m inspired by the courageous Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Europe @ObamaFoundation Leaders I met in Athens, Greece.
They’re working on the most pressing issues facing our world – from climate change and human rights to empowering women and girls.
Take a look:
Two tragic stories unfolded at sea within days of one another, but the intrigue and focus on the search-and-rescue mission for the Titan submersible eclipsed that of what could be the worst migrant boat disaster on record in the Mediterranean Sea. https://t.co/9LWXQQQBN6
We are failing our children. Guns are now the leading cause of death for children in the U.S.
Michelle and I mourn with the students and families of the Covenant School today.
K-12 Ed “Polycrisis”
- Class sizes have ballooned
- Complexity of student needs has grown (social/emotional, cognitive/behavioural)
- Resources & supports have declined
- Professional autonomy is diminished
Teacher shortages are next!

33 years ago tonight, 14 women went to bed thinking about their finals, future in STEM and the upcoming holiday season. They didn’t know that these dreams threatened a man’s sense of self worth and that they wouldn’t survive to see their goals and aspirations become a reality.
