1/2 We applaud @SecretarySonny and Dept. of Agriculture for extending the Summer Food Service Program and Seamless Summer Option through December, and appreciate Congress for working in a bipartisan manner to urge the department to provide this critical flexibility: blogs.edweek.org/edweek/campaig…

It is an honor to support and elevate leaders like Luis (Luis Ávila)--thoughtful, fearless, humble as he leads work to ensure our community is setting the agenda for Latinx students. His work and leadership is a model of our #ThirdWayValues.

Check out our member, Leslie-Bernard Joseph, CEO of Coney Island Prep, speaking with Errol Louis of Spectrum News NY1 on their back-to-school efforts and hear how thorough and thoughtful they've been in their planning. We stand with Leslie, and all our systems leaders as they make these tough calls.

I started my career as an elementary teacher, and the joy of teaching a child to read cannot be matched. That's why I love reading with kids and why I'm so excited to be part of #GHBedtimeStories! I'm looking forward to it!

As leaders, we must dismantle the structural barriers that communities of color face. To do so, we must acknowledge that they do in fact exist and understand that many of these barriers are the legacy of slavery. blogs.edweek.org/edweek/campaig…

Instead of taking our support for granted, presidential candidates must invite people of color to the table. @EdLoCnational is on a mission to make sure that happens. Read what we hope to see tonight: edloc.org/blog-potus-deb…
