A student yet to engage emerged in virtual class today. The teacher was so excited to see him & said she hoped it was because he missed class/his classmates. He smiled. After class he told her he was hungry. Hungry. Please let’s all remember to be gentle with kids right now.

I understand people want to open up closed-down businesses, but what drives me as mayor of the City of Houston is that #COVID19 cases are concentrated in at-risk neighborhoods like the one I grew up in. This is personal for me. Do not gloss over it like it's not important.

If you say we should open schools because kids don’t get Covid-19, who do you think will be teaching the kids? Adult teachers! Y’all really trying to throw us to the wolves out here.

Thank you so much to our Mission Glen Elementary administrators for our amazing gifts today! They had a drive-thru pizza parade for Teacher Appreciation! It was great to see everyone in person and not on a screen! 🤣🤣🤣 Dr. Yvette Mapp Blake Danielle Murray Moss 💚💛💚💛#HappyTeacherAppreciationweek

Many Americans are just two or three generations away from slavery....that's all. Slavery in America may be 400 years old...but that's a starting point, not an end point. Two or three generations is nothing...

Khloe Joiner, a 3rd grade student at Palmer Elementary, hosted a Mask Up and Read Book Drive. Thanks to the 1,000 children books donated by Disney after they heard about Khloe's local book drives, Khloe and her family were able to provide books to students at her school!! 📚

There's an old Texas saying: When the going gets tough, the tough go to Cancun. (No, there actually is no such saying).
