Just as "ready to learn" focuses on young kids' deficits rather than on schools' responsibility to educate all who show up, so talk of "college/career readiness" ignores evidence that the problem isn't unqualified graduates but a scarcity of good jobs

Happy to have collaborated with @jkenyon and ⁦@FRHSDSup⁩ on this Op-Ed to insist all of NJ students emerge from this pandemic with what they need: NJ must reexamine the school funding formula | NJ Spotlight News njspotlight.com/2021/02/op-ed-…

Had a wonderful New Jersey Network of Superintendents session this afternoon working with Dr. Michelle Knight-Manuel of Columbia University. Discussed culturally relevant education as a means to achieving equitable outcomes for all students. Got us all thinking deeply.

@drMi @KeithEricBenson @rsvpocaro @RowanMath @EdLawCenter @ChrisTienken @RowanUniversity @alfiekohn Dr. Milou. Thank you again for taking a hard line against standardized assessments that are consistently linked to exclusionary practices that hurt the trajectory of minority and low income students. A disappointing decision by @Rowanmath

@KeithEricBenson @rsvpocaro @RowanMath @EdLawCenter @ChrisTienken @RowanUniversity @jkenyon @alfiekohn Thanks but now I have to fight to keep it that way and stop the latest flavor of standardized testing (ALEKS).

My own @RowanMath dept wants to implement ALEKS placement testing for all students - so wrong, so racist and so invalid. Can any of my education colleagues speak up against such testing policies? @EdLawCenter @ChrisTienken @RowanUniversity @jkenyon @KeithEricBenson @alfiekohn

Not enough characters available to explain how important he is to public education! Welcome @DrFerrie !

Enjoying tonight's discussion and couldn't agree more; we need to go on a "standards diet". Let's approach students with less is more and cut out the trivial. @MeganLabas @cford @RestartEDteam @ctemc

The cavalry isn’t coming! It’s up 2 us to ReThink, ReImagine, & ReStart Education! We can start with a STANDARDS DIET. Allow Ts flexibility & autonomy 2 teach Ss real-life dispositions needed in a post pandemic 🌎! @RestartEDteam @ChrisTienken @jkenyon #edchat #suptchat

Today we honored William Portalatin as he graduated from WHS. He will be joining the military before July 6 ceremony.

In all my time as a Sup I have witnessed structural impediment after structural impediment slow progress toward equality & work against students of color & poor students. One lesson I have learned is that you must fight against them tooth and nail on a daily basis. They spring

When schools reopen, their doors must open equally to all - nj.com nj.com/opinion/2020/0…

@NewJerseyDOE @DrLRepollet @GovMurphy Wildwood is continuing to do its part to serve our students

Since we are in “canceling mood” - let’s cancel ALL state testing for this year. This will allow our teachers and administrators who are already faced with a lot of uncertainties to focus on meeting the pressing needs of our students.

The Warrior Nation forges ahead in the battle for fair funding and resources for all students! #warriornation #stopstateaidcuts @nj_sos
