This morning John Lewis crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge for the last time, and I reflected on how far as a nation we have come since he crossed it those many years ago, in the humble hope of changing America. He did., #goodtrouble

Teach my kids to hate America!!?? Please apologize to every one of my students who for the last 20 years have spent a good part of their fall semester working their tails off preparing music to honor our Veterans on Veterans Day. They love our Vets, our school and our country...

We are very close to getting where we need to be...the stay put order is working, and new cases are declining. Let’s keep it up so we don’t relapse, and have to do it again! images.app.goo.gl/PLB7v91J7s…

For anyone to give you disrespect or judgement is ridiculous. Until they have lived your reality it’s not credible. The inner workings of your job are unreal and no joke. Our family appreciates you, your staff, and supports your knowledge and efforts.

NO ONE cares more or has worked harder than you. With a close second by your staff. Many have no clue about the work you’ve accomplished as a team. It’s been done showing love for the students & with consistent communication.

The USPS is critical infrastructure, and needs to be supported. Our Founders understood that. It is not supposed to make money, it is supposed to provide a critical service. Left to their own, for profits would eliminate service to important rural parts of the country.

Thank you Commissioner Johnson for your leadership.
A message to Alaska's Educators: "Teaching is not about a location - it is about relationships. Teaching is defined by the actions we take to ensure students are learning and growing - we need you and your leadership now more than ever." #aklearns #akedchat #aksuptchat #COVID19
