So protest them. Don’t deprive students of their civil right to education.

We see this pattern again and again. Long strikes, modest gains, teacher cuts because the districts can’t sustain the changes. It’s a waste of time and an embarrassment for our profession. It’s not about students.

National Advocacy Efforts for DoE/IDEA Templates for writing your reps, updates, etc.

Today is great day to write your rep and ask them to maintain the Department of Education so deaf/disabled children are allowed to attend school and have access to accommodations. I wrote the letter for you, actually! Right here! open.substack.com/pub/novicnew...

Anyone else finding it hard to plan for #ncte24? The format of the program doesn’t match the app. And I can’t print the program. πŸ‘ŽπŸΌ I hope they give us a printed copy
