Being multilingual is a powerful asset that can connect students to their identity & culture while preparing them for the global workforce.
Today the Biden-Harris Administration announced $11 million to support multilingualism in schools. ow.ly/Bs4750TegjY

I am living proof that being bilingual gives you a leg up.
That’s why at @USEDGov we are working hard to ensure our students are given the opportunity and superpower of being multilingual.

#MedinaMondayMessage: When educators denounce #translanguaging practices, it is most often because they don’t fully understand what translanguaging is - and isn’t. All of us translanguage, whether monolingual or multilingual. So, what is the controversy about?

Spanglish is often described in the context of bilingualism. A dual ability. Two gifts. #BilingualismIsASuperpower washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/…

The unintended consequences of #HB434 may limit a child's opportunity for a well-rounded education and opportunity of exposure to art and culture education, especially students in low income schools. Learn how you can take a stand for arts ed here: txculturaltrust.org/hb434/
