Last year, more than 2,200 high school and college students stepped up to serve as election judges and coordinators, the highest in the nation, in large part thanks to @MikvaChallenge!

It’s an honor, a gift to have the opportunity to lead thru a transition to advance equity. Supporting students & adults is top the priority… Educators, make time for resting over the summer. For real, do it. You deserve a pause. For those who want to work, well.. work and rest.

The decision to transition out of the role of @chipubschools CEO wasn’t an easy one for me, but it’s much easier knowing our district has experienced, community-centered leaders in place like our interim leadership team: CEO @JosemtorresM, CEdO @docswin, and COO Lindy McGuire.

So many of us were SO inspired by the words of @TheAmandaGorman at today's inauguration. Here is a lesson we created today at @MikvaChallenge to help teachers spur conversation and ACTION using her powerful words as a starting point. Please share! docs.google.com/document/d/1RG…

Our #YouthPriorities campaign asks young people to speak out on what issue they want action on in the first 100 days of the new administration & Congress. One of these powerful youth voices comes from Donshannay, who advocates for access to healthcare.
