Please join me in voting for this exceptional human being! Mr. Peanuts is so very deserving of this award!

It may sound fluffy or cliche but if we are truly working toward equity, we must visualize and believe in a future of possibility. This work isn’t about fixing deficits. Its about honoring, rectifying, and ultimately, cultivating the unique gifts and talents that we all possess.

Great suggestions which honor the reality of school leaders!

MTC members: Our annual Town Hall meeting is tomorrow, 4/26 at 4 p.m. ET. MTC's CEO Mike Flanagan will review the current landscape of competency-based education and share progress and updates from MTC. Register here: members.mastery.org/groups/10

Such an incredible episode! An amazing reminder of the power of the conversation! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cod…

We're thrilled to announce that MTC's competency-based learning records—Mastery Transcript and MTC Learning Record—have achieved the Comprehensive Learner Record Standard™ (CLR Standard™) and earned 1EdTech™ (1EdTech) certification. #MTC #LearningMobility

News Flash! When the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and Educational Testing Service decide to work together to find new ways to assess competency, you know there's a true revolution coming in education. insidehighered.com/news/students/…

Wow! Great to listen to leaders of Carnegie Foundation (invented seat time) and ETS (of standardized test fame) explaining their shared vision of a competency-based educational model like those in Mastery Transcript Consortium® (MTC) schools. gettingsmart.com/podcast/tim-kn… #gspodcast

Engaging student voice is not just about being willing to hear what students have to say. It's about transforming education in response to what students have to say. If all we're doing is hearing what they have to say, we're manipulating, not engaging.

Since day 1, Mastery Transcript Consortium® (MTC) has been blessed with an amazing group of advisors and directors. Deeply grateful to Tom Vander Ark for realizing early on what it could mean for the sector if we got it right. Excited for the next chapter with ETS and Carnegie Foundation!

So excited to be a part of this work with this incredible group of people!

Alex Rodriguez asked a question. Reggie Jackson answered it. (Shouts to the producer and rest of the desk for staying out of Reggie’s way and just letting him talk. I doubt they expected this answer. But it’s a great few minutes of television.)

So excited to see WI joining this effort!
