@DanielTelvock @Larry_Scott19 @CMChrisScanlon if we wrote down our policies and shared them publicly then parents would use them to complain about us.

@BPS_Buffalo are hosting a High School Showcase on September 30th from 9am-noon. Come and learn more about the programs available, the application process and more!

@BillDelove @markpoloncarz it would be illegal for someone living in Cheektowaga to attend Buffalo Public Schools, or the summer camps reserved for BPS students.

@markpoloncarz @BPS_Buffalo Yeah I’m sure all those illegals in Cheektowaga will love it walking around with smartphones and new clothes and Jordan’s on job

Erie County is proud to partner with Say Yes Buffalo, @BPS_Buffalo and the City of Buffalo to bring free summer camp to children at 28 sites citywide. The camps focus on learning and fun. It's an example of how we are investing in our most precious resource: our youth.

Introducing one of our 2023 Equity Champions, Dr. Tonja Williams, superintendent of @BPS_Buffalo! Dr. Williams will be honored for her work on Buffalo’s 3-bell system initiative to ensure students do not miss out on critical instruction time. Join us: edtrustny.org/benefit

@ShovelBuffalo How else would we encourage students to opt-out of attending the first week? We have too many glitches that we need to work out before *everyone* comes back to school.

@robins36 We are not the worst school district in the state.

@UncleKari We already have a teacher shortage and a staff shortage, we can't afford to lose those that do not live here. Not all employees are required to live in the city, some of our highest paid administrators and principals live in the suburbs...

We know Evolv security scanners do not work, and will falsely flag water bottles, and school supplies as weapons, but we're still going to spend $2.8 million installing them in BPS schools! They have great marketing materials. wibx950.com/utica-schools-…

Shhh. Don't tell anyone, but we're closing all schools for a super secret snow day on April 10.

@AdamLocher @MikeBloomberg @MayorByronBrown oh Adam, you should know that Mayor Brown does not care about BPS or its students.

@MikeBloomberg .@MayorByronBrown - couldn’t the @BPS_Buffalo use this program

We can't let pandemic learning loss hold kids back from a lifetime of opportunities. Summer Boost, launched by @BloombergDotOrg, had tremendous success getting rising first-ninth grade charter students in NYC back on track. on.wsj.com/3Iw5E8g

Dr. Tonja Williams Superintendent of Buffalo Public Schools joined us today for our latest podcast. Her vision and passion are contagious! @BPS_Buffalo buzzsprout.com/2041840/121330…

Should BPS have a snow day tomorrow (Jan 26)?

How long do you think we should extend break for? Two weeks? Six weeks? The rest of the year?

We envision similar schedules for our BPS parents! mcsweeneys.net/articles/a-par…

Changing when school starts and ends is a great way to prevent parents from holding careers, avoid kids participation in after school sports, and keep our high school students exhausted! What is your opinion on changing bell times: tiny.cc/belltime

@BuffaloveMom It's better than having no school bus at all

So, the same councilman that brought a GUN into one of our schools, now wants a program to identify gunfire in his district... ?
