Using Brown v. Board to plug education savings accounts is a deliberate mis-telling of Virginia history. The Farmville students who led the Moton School walkout were protesting inferior public school facilities — funding Republicans still deny Virginia cities to this day.

As you prepare for this evening's #CNNTownhall with Governor Glenn Youngkin, take a look at the great questions posed by our friends at @TCI Equality Virginia, ACLU of Virginia, Legal Aid Justice Center & Pride Liberation Project. Then, keep an eye on us as you watch for a live fact-check of the Governor's performance.

The first of six public hearings on the revised history standards kicks off tonight in Williamsburg. Here's a great recap of how we got into this mess. #TeachTruth virginiamercury.com/2023/03/13/vir…

PSA: If you’re going to any of the hearings on the #VA SOL standards, know that last night our comments were cut from 3 minutes to 2 minutes, and they were very strict! We only found out about the time cut ~15 minutes before going up to speak. #YoungkinStandards #sschat #edchat

This month AlbemarleCountySchls celebrates PRIDE month. ALL students & staff should be affirmed and valued for who they are & feel safe expressing their authentic selves! Dr. Eric Irizarry 🇵🇷 Daphne Keiser Ayanna #allmeansall!

#OnThisDay in 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered "I Have a Dream" at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. #OnThisDay in 2008, Barack Obama became the first African American to be nominated for president on a major party ticket. #CivilRights #Moton1951

This post says the quiet part out loud. Meg Scalia Bryce and Joann McDermid aren’t running to help improve our public schools for all kids. They’re right-wing culture warriors who seek to advance a narrow, exclusionary vision that will harm vulnerable children.

Loved presenting with my friend and former colleague, Hannah Handrich, about how we can capitalize on student and family funds of knowledge in ways that accelerate learning. Thanks for the opportunity Virginia TESOL AlbemarleCountySchls

Taking a moment to smell the flowers .. and paint some 🌸☀️ Grateful for a sprained ankle that forced me to slow down..

Got great advice recently. “Feed your spirit.” Definitely needed to do that this morning. I took a long walk in the woods and Mother Nature did not disappoint. I even got to see our resident bald eagle hanging out at the reservoir. ☀️
