"We need all parents to know that a bilingual education is a cognitive advantage and to stay the course. Greatness is everywhere and we need to look beyond the Math and Language Art scores."

“I cannot claim to be culturally responsive if I proclaim to my students that their cultural ways of communicating are somehow inferior to ‘standard English.’” This powerful reflection from educator @biblio_phile joins our list of this week's top reads. t-t.site/2Owd00v

ACTFL recognizes that being a #bilingual teacher is no easy job, and that your contribution to education should be valued.

Oh my! Mon Dieu! Only 20% of students in the US study another language compared to a median of 92% in Europe. How can we be globally competitive at this rate? pewresearch.org/fact-tank/20… @FLAVAWeb @NADSFL #VOWLS @DualLanguageVA

Standing ovation as Drs. Thomas & Collier challenge they state of Virginia to implement equitable, research-backed #DualLanguage education principles. @VDOE_News #virginiadli

Dr. Thomas: The positive effects of remedial programs fade within a few years. The positive effects of enrichment programs (like Dual Language) are long-lasting. #VirginiaDLI
