It happens around a table. The future of education technology will not be shaped by tools alone—it will be shaped by the conversations, trust, and shared commitment of the people willing to show up and speak on behalf of students, teachers, and schools. Grateful to our partners at ClassLink and MagicSchool AI for bringing together great minds from across the country for a meaningful meal, rich conversation, and focused strategy preparation ahead of EdTech Advocacy Day at the U.S. Capitol with Consortium for School Networking (CoSN), SETDA, SIIA. When educators, innovators, and leaders gather face-to-face, ideas become sharper. Priorities become clearer. Relationships become stronger. And advocacy becomes more powerful. 📣 Here’s to turning dinner-table dialogue into Capitol Hill impact. Thank you for the thoughtful and engaging #edtech conversations Patrick Devanney, Rachel Van Aken, McKenzie Boyce, Laurence Cocco, Sheryl R. Abshire, Ph.D., Brad Hagg, Dorann Avey, M.Ed, Educational Leadership, John Gieser, Keith Krueger, Doug Casey, Steven Priest, Bre Urness-Straight, M.Ed., Carla Wade, Stacy Hawthorne, Ed.D., Charlie Jackson, and Denny Gonzalez!

@its_morgancave @henryhalltx @RobinisReading Congratulations on earning your CETL certification! 👏#CETLProud

So proud to earn my #CETL from @CoSN this week. Following in the footsteps of my leaders @henryhalltx and @RobinisReading who encouraged and supported me, I am in good company! It was a deep dive into everything from disaster recovery to change management and strategic planning.

The FCC voted today to impose a new E-Rate bidding portal over broad opposition from schools, libraries, and education leaders. CoSN and partners are disappointed, but we're not done advocating. Read statement: ow.ly/Wqi050YT0oW

#FCC Voted to Layer New Portal onto #ERate application process. @AASAHQ joined @SHLBCoalition and @CoSN in press release expressing disappointment in the vote. shlb.org/blogs/shlb-coa… CC @AASAdvocacy

The best EdTech in the room can't compete with the right conversation in the hallway. CoSN's Jill Brown on why human connection is still the most powerful learning tool we have. Great conversation between Tinkering Media and @drjillbrown - ow.ly/jWfy50YSZRB
