My heart aches for the Uvalde, Texas community. As a parent, I'm filled with grief for the families & students; concern that as we move past COVID, fear of school shootings has become real once again & anger at the lack of will by many to pass legislation to protect our children.

Our hearts are broken today. We are grieving with you – for students, for parents, for families, for teachers and school staff. We are sad, and angry, and scared. These are our worst days at work. #Uvalde

Great learning at the #ELevateSTL22 with some of the English Language Development, SPS team. Thanks @RobGreenhaw!
