We can't solve the teacher shortage without first respecting the profession. 🧵1/ When I decided to leave the classroom, I knew the people would be the part I missed the most. Both the students and the incredible staff I was lucky enough to work with.

Congress needs to hear from us loud and clear: don't agree to any DHS budget that allows ICE activity at schools, ever. Contact your Members of Congress to demand they restore protections for students and their families: action.e4e.org/protect-school…

I am honored to know and collaborate w/Dr. Steven Johnson, a small town rural superintendent in ND. As Steven explains in his latest op-ed, breaking up ED will interrupt funding & services, wreaking havoc on student outcomes - especially for rural students.the74million.org/article/fragme…

As a former educator, I know the challenges early career teachers face. But a strong education system needs a strong teacher workforce. We surveyed new teachers across the country to better understand what they need to stay in the field. Read more: americanprogress.org/article/how-to…

Lots of reporting on SNAP getting the details wrong. SNAP is not set to run out of money on November 1. There’s money in the contingency fund to pay benefits. The Trump admin is illegally refusing to deliver benefits on November 1, despite having funding to pay benefits.

These cuts are unacceptable. They threaten the government's ability to ensure equal access to education for all and will severely limit the resources schools, students, and families can access. 5/5

The Office for Civil Rights (which enforces civil rights laws in K-12 schools, managing tens of thousands of complaints a year) faces an 80% cut since the start of this year. If these cuts are upheld, wait times for assistance and case resolution will dramatically increase. 4/5

The Trump admin's newest staffing cuts at ED leave virtually no one to oversee programs that improve academic achievement & promote equal access for students w/disabilities, raising serious concerns about how funds will be distributed and monitored. 1/5 americanprogress.org/article/the-tr…

The Trump administration slashed the Department of Education's workforce by nearly 50%—this is a direct attack on 50 million students. @pbshoemaker breaks down the numbers behind these cuts:

The stories told within this piece are such powerful reflections of the strength of rural educators, the importance of rural public schools, and the risks they face as private school voucher programs expand. Hear more from rural Texas educators in the link below!

"If you're not visiting a classroom, if you're not visiting a school building [...] you're not doing your job." Lawmakers need to meet with, listen to, and learn from the people they're meant to represent.

Greatly appreciated working with Dr. Balbus for this event! Extreme heat is a serious threat to students, one that cannot be ignored if we want to get serious about improving academic achievement and student health.
CAP K-12 Education@EdProgress

As Dr. Balbus explains, it will take a whole-of-society response to ensure our children are protected from the impacts of extreme heat and have the save future they deserve. To learn more, watch a recording of our recent event: americanprogress.org/events/reachin…
