Remember....compliance & following rules is not always an equity stance or just action. Those that fought slavery were outlaws & committed unlawful acts by opposing the inhumane treatment o others. We have a moral responsibility to challenge unjust and compliance-laden policies.

Powerful CBS News story on how NYC Public Schools are addressing chronic absenteeism and leading for #everystudenteveryday throughout the pandemic. Go A-Tech High School!! Counseling In Schools Nathaniel Styer Sarah Jonas cbsnews.com/newyork/news/e…

Yes! Register! I’m excited to be presenting with colleagues at A-Tech High School and Counseling In Schools on NYC Community Schools and best practices for using data for continuous improvement and reducing chronic absenteeism across NYC Public Schools

When students attend school regularly, they perform better academically, form stronger relationships and are more successful upon graduation. It was a pleasure to join District 4 Principals in conversation about how to increase daily attendance and reduce chronic absenteeism.

Tonight was bittersweet. Bidding tearful farewell to a dear colleague @JuanJRosales2 while simultaneously so happy to see former community school coworkers and friends 👍🎈😢Chris Caruso Michael Hickey Keri Sarah Jonas
