Just got a group of 12 registered from Culver City CA. They are in the house. Groups are starting to coordinate with their districts.
I love it.

Thank you to our amazing educators and parents for an excellent first day back at school with our SDC, K, 1 and 2nd grade classes. No separation anxiety. Lots of happy students. Joy in my heart.

When you don’t experience actual oppression you invent struggle. I don’t buy it.

Stopping the spread of COVID-19 is all of our responsibility. As students, parents and employees of EPISD, it's important to know the protocols when feeling sick and getting tested. Take a moment to learn the rules and follow them in order to get us back on track. #IamEPISD

A group of students from @WiggsWolverines set aside all toxic masculinity and put on a pair of high heels to show support for the victims of sexual, gender and domestic violence during this year’s @ywcaelpaso “Walk A Mile In Her Shoes” event. #IamEPISD #EPISDProud

I'm glad more students are showing up for Distance Learning this Fall semester than they did last Spring.

The way we fund our schools is a racial justice issue. Marginalized students don't have the resources and supports they need in part because multi-billion dollar corps get property tax breaks. Prop 15 = justice. #YESon15 @Schools1stCA .

A molecule designed in a UCSF lab can disable the SARS-CoV-2 virus, preventing it from infecting cells. Researchers call it "a molecular form of PPE that could serve as an important stopgap until vaccines provide a more permanent solution to #COVID19."

When we launched the Center for the Transformation of Schools at UCLA I asked Sir Ken Robinson to deliver the keynote. For those of you who don't know him check out this TED talk. He makes complex ideas clear.

Maslow applies to educators now more than ever. Leaders need to remember that when they’re talking about culture, mission, and all that stuff at the top of the pyramid... they have staff members & students who are worried about safety, security, and all that stuff at the bottom.

One of the most frustrating parts of being a teacher is watching non-educators debate the operation of educational systems. Now more than ever. 😔

I am puzzled. If Congress and the Administration can agree to give trillions to corporations, big banks, airlines, and 600,000 others, why can’t they agree to appropriate $500 billion to open schools safely, in accordance with science? What about the children? and their teachers?

My district’s reopening plan. It still needs to be board and union approved, and there are still lots of unanswered questions, but it’s the closest to the idea @Jess5th and @Maire_from_NJ discussed.
