Their voice, their power, their space! Give it up for @UniondaleUFSD and @MalverneUFSD for standing up for the empowerment of their girls!
Thank you to @Voice4Equity for facilitating a policy workshop for girls with the students of @UniondaleUFSD and @MalverneUFSD with Dr. Alicia Thompson and Ronique Hicks from Discovery Education. Our girls felt heard and affirmed and they learned how to affect policy change.

Wow, such a powerful space supported by Supt @MDarrisawAkil! When you truly empower girls through policy voice, you can expect to be pushed as a leader on the equity advancements still needed in public education, in our communities and in our nation. Our youth are our hope!
Being intentional about pouring into the next generation of women leaders. @UniondaleUFSD @MalverneUFSD @Voice4Equity

I threw down with a double sized tamale and horchata at the Hollywood Farmer’s Market on Sandy blvd in Portland, OR. The world and all of its glorious food variations was there…so PNW!

I am reading David Grann's Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI. It's not a light read, but it sure sheds greater light on how our native nations in the United States have been mistreated and dehumanized. Filling in the history gaps in education!

Mississippi and Hawaii pair up @EdCommission to share their practices in recruiting teachers that are representative of the student body. In the U.S. 54% of students are students of color; what percentage of your teachers are BIPOC?

Great to connect with friends @EdCommission. From Generative AI to computer science, to early childhood access - these are the policy conversations that matter!
