Facing what we know about last night's shootings in Georgia, there is a strong temptation to jump directly into educating. But we want to pause and acknowledge the pain. To take care of students, colleagues and ourselves. We hope you'll do the same. t-t.site/2OH7Xxu

As we emerge from the pandemic, it is more important than ever that we continue to collect data that illuminates the inequities in our system and pushes us to make change that will benefit our most vulnerable students.
