When Donald Trump was asked how 1,000 Americans dying a day could possibly mean Covid was “under control” he said, “it is what it is.” So forgive me if I don’t give a flying fuck about how hard it is to sit in a cold courtroom. When a military widow was mourning the loss of her…
My dad said that he had one basic premise for his script, "Requiem for a Heavyweight." And that was: "Everyone can and must search for their own personal dignity. Photo: Mickey Rooney with Rod Serling

They rarely are. Education is a cash cow. If it was truly about improvement, wouldn’t we be bringing teachers into the process?

When Ss understand the "why" behind what they're doing, they're more likely to buy in – and that goes for #SEL instruction, too, says educator @AshleyPTaplin:
👇I’ve learned over 4 decades in schools kids haven’t changed. They are, and always have been, a reflection of the society they’re growing up in and determined by adults. They are our mirror. If we don’t like what we’re seeing, what does that tell us?

I wish y’all had the same grace for Black children that you do for billionaires.
A Note from Maulik Pancholy
A letter from the Superintendent and nine other district administrators from the Cumberland Valley School District to the school community in response to the the school board’s 8-0 decision to cancel Maulik Pancholy’s author visit with the students of Mountain View Middle School.
I don’t know how anyone can see the bodies of murdered Palestinian children on their timeline and think, ‘this is just.’ Palestinian children matter. 💔
“I am smart even though I am unorganized I am brave even when I am bullied ADHD is not as bad as it seems I wish you knew more about me” I read this 3-4 times today and, as an English teacher and student with ADHD, I’ve never felt more seen. Thank you @DrMacieKerbs 😭
So today, I share with you a poem from my 3rd grader, who has not benefited from the current reality of our schools, and who begs for a school that understands the complexity and nuance of teaching children & values neurodiversity and fosters individual strengths.
If you stand by and watch as a woman gets hit or verbally attacked by a man you are a coward. Plain and simple.
THIS IS KILLING SCHOOLS.
What justifies making 8 year old children sit for a four hour test. Really. I need to know. What data can they get from a 4-passage, 25 question test that they can’t get from a 2-passage 15 question test. Someone please explain.
I mean this in the nicest way possible: I don’t do consulting on book publishing. Some of you have followed me because of the books I published Ss in through my classroom, but that was a project, not my occupation. I don’t have the capacity for that now. Please, no more DMs. 🙏🏽
It has become clear that calls for curriculum reform are not really about curriculum, reading instruction or improvement. They are not calls for teaching all kinds of minds, or supporting students with disabilities, or wrap-around services
When Ss understand the "why" behind what they're doing, they're more likely to buy in – and that goes for #SEL instruction, too, says educator @AshleyPTaplin:
Imagine men explaining to a judge the reason they need Viagra is because they are having difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection. Imagine men telling a judge they’ve been having reduced sexual desire, and stress related to sexual performance, hence the need for a penile…
I don’t know who needs to here this but the answer to the age old question “How do we ensure all kids are proficient in all subjects” isn’t “buy more curriculum every six years!!” It’s: Attract and retain deeply knowledgeable, highly skilled, expert teachers.
Great extra inning win against a very good Greenwich team today. Go Mustangs!
@Jess5th Clara will be entering the fourth grade next year and I just keep hoping that one day she has a teacher as amazing as you
Boomer: At your age in 1970 I paid off college & bought a house w/hard work Millennials: In 1970 college was 5% of median salary—Now it’s 44%. A median home was $24K—Now its $417K. The top marginal tax rate was 70%—Now its 37%. You worked hard—& then closed the door behind you.
