It was such a joy to spend #ReadAcrossAmerica alongside my colleagues, in my favorite place: a school!

Reading diverse stories to students is equal parts important and fun.

Read Across America Day NEA encourages kids, teens, and people of all ages to pick up a book and read. National Education Association president Becky Pringle joins KTVU to discuss

It was great to talk to @ktvufox2.bsky.social about what #ReadAcrossAmerica is all about: literacy, learning, and diversity.

Learning and growth are a lifelong journey—which is why it is critical that students read each and every day.

Schools should be places of joy, safety, and learning—never military targets.

Today I am thinking of the scores of children, families, teachers, and unionists whose lives have been lost or upended. We at NEA are in solidarity with members of @eduinternational.bsky.social in calls for peace in Iran.

It's the most wonderful time of the year—for bookworms!

Happy #ReadAcrossAmericaDay! 📖🧡 Studies have shown that reading reduces stress, and that reading just 20 minutes a day adds up to reading 1.8 million words per year. It’s also the fastest way for children to grow their vocabulary. #RAA2026

As we begin National Women's History Month, I pay homage to all of the women throughout my life—including my mother here—who made it possible for me to lead.

As Public Schools Week comes to a close, we continue to appreciate all of the dedicated educators in our country year-round.

And we must also commit to protecting public education for generations to come. #PSW26

A pleasure and an honor to meet @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social at last week's NAACP board meeting—let's fight for affordability for working families everywhere.

Sens. Warren and Sanders ask congressional watchdog to investigate dismantling Department of Education Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are petitioning the Government Accountability Office to investigate the dismantling of the U.S. Department of Education.

Dismantling the Department of Education would harm countless students—and the attempts to do so warrant investigation.

Tonight is the State of the Union.

And the state of our union is this: a president who has bypassed Congress hundreds of times through executive action, a legislative branch that is doing his bidding, and communities across the country paying the price. #SOTU

All students deserve to feel heard in the classroom—and educators need to feel supported in order to do the jobs that they were hired to do.

Thankfully, we have prevented the Trump administration from furthering their classroom censorship and whitewashing agenda.

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Reverend Jesse Jackson. Today, I celebrate the life of a giant who was a pillar of justice for labor, education, and communities across this nation.

May we carry forward the hope that he kept alive and remember that justice is a collective responsibility.

Educators deserve trust and support—because they change the lives of our students through their dedication every day.

Pay educators like the essential, skilled professionals that they are.

Teachers describe immigration enforcement's impact on classrooms in challenge of Trump policy In a new court filing, teachers around the country describe how President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown is emptying classrooms and frightening families.

ICE's mere presence near schools terrorizes students and disrupts educators' teaching. Fear and cruelty have no place there.

This is why @neatoday.bsky.social is taking legal action to demand long-standing protections for sensitive locations—like schools—be restored. #ICEOutSchools bit.ly/46368zA

Hear it from @daveswords.bsky.social of @eduinternational.bsky.social: all across the globe, educators are watching and sending us solidarity.
