Special education advocates warn against future program transfers
They worry that moving IDEA services out of the Education Department would diminish oversight for civil rights and accountability.
March is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, a call to celebrate and empower each and every student, regardless of ability or disability status.
This is why it is so critical that we have dedicated professionals within the Department of Education upholding students' rights through IDEA.

This is not accountability.
Nothing will change by reshuffling the players while the cruel agenda remains intactβDHS has perpetrated egregious, inexcusable, and deadly abuses of power.
We demand true oversight, consequences for these reckless actors, and not another penny in funding for ICE.

Strike on Girlsβ School Kills at Least 175, Iranian State Media Says
Schools should be places of joy, safety, and learningβnever 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.

Happy #ReadAcrossAmericaDay! ππ§‘ 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. Itβs also the fastest way for children to grow their vocabulary. #RAA2026

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 classroomβand 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.

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 Trumpβs 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 locationsβlike schoolsβbe restored. #ICEOutSchools bit.ly/46368zA
