#Pe4liberation @Jason_To school as a community hub is always the ideal! How do we create that? We need to interact differently - relationship building. @grdianak @YorkUeducation @PE4Liberation

The school system is not the expert for our kids. Parents are the experts @WokeMommy #pe4liberation @YorkUeducation @workingwomencc @Jason_To @mfyanchapaxi @Malas_Madres
