It is unethical to expect teachers to return to in-person classrooms in the fall when their level of exposure to the virus will be exponentially increased. You only gamble with the lives of people you have no value for

You cannot claim to care about young people if you do not extend that same care to those who have been charged to educate them. That is the ultimate hypocrisy.

An educator who feels unsafe, uncared for & devalued cannot give their full selves to their work. Basic human needs extend to those who teach as much as they do to those who are to be taught

If you are an international student Teachers College, Columbia University Teachers College-MST and you need an in-person class, I'm more than happy to offer independent study. DM or email for more information. Thank you Oren Pizmony-Levy🌍

I really wish the, “We need our kids in school,” crowd was willing to put up that, “We need our kids in school,” money.

You can love your administrators and disagree with them at the same time. You can respect your administrators and think they’re wrong at the same time. You can appreciate your administrators and hold them accountable at the same time.

🚨Weather alert: #HISD is actively monitoring #TropicalStormBeta and will provide immediate updates if any changes to district schedules or operations become necessary. As of now, all operations remain normal for Monday, 9/21.

I just wrote a @theactionnet letter: Stop bullying districts, Governor Abbott! Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/stop-b…

I saw the clip of members of Congress offering masks to the colleagues they were locked in a room with, only to be laughed at. Now, members are coming back positive. Too many leaders have made a mockery of public health interventions. It’s past time to get serious.

Here's how much every US state pays its teachers and how much they spend on each student businessinsider.com/teacher-salary… via @businessinsider

I fully support the action Houston ISD Superintendent House is taking to require masks in schools. I hope that more will do the same, despite the state of Texas edict against masks in schools. It’s a moment of necessary civil disobedience. Children's lives are literally at risk.

NEW: We just authorized the Harris County Attorney to file a lawsuit challenging GA-38, the order that prevents Texas local governments from requiring masks. First responders and school  leaders are speaking out and standing up as Delta ravages our community. We have their back.
