We condemn—in the strongest terms possible—the violence, threats of violence and other acts of intimidation that are increasingly taking place in America’s libraries, including these recent threats directed at suburban Chicago/Lake County libraries. 1/2 news.yahoo.com/bomb-threats-…

“I’m very concerned that our society is much more concerned with information than wonder, in noise rather than silence. How do we encourage reflection? … Oh my, this is a noisy world.”

Friendly reminder that it's extremely important to pronounce student names correctly. It's a part of their identity. If you aren't sure about a name, ask the student.

I want to believe you, that you love your students. That's why I'm challenging you to enact antiracism, to make the love more real. My suspicion comes when you claim that your love is the reason you don't need antiracism. That's why I ask, "WHICH students?"

“It’s tempting to think ‘a little’ isn’t significant and that only ‘a lot’ matters. But most things that are important in life start very small and change very slowly, and they don’t come with fanfare and bright lights.”

I give myself a solid C in this week’s efforts for transitioning into distance learning. . . . I give my students & their parents an A+. The grace they have shown me - even through my many hiccups - has been completely humbling. 👨🏻‍💻❤️ #Grateful

My mom works an hourly job. This is personal to me.
Rep. @AOC: "What did the Senate majority fight for? One of the largest corporate bailouts with as few strings as possible in American history. Shameful!"

Out First Responders are hard at work for you. Do your part and stay home as much as you can. Just because something is not closed by a City Ordinance, it doesn't mean you should disregard all the safety guidelines and put yourself and others and risk! #iAmElPaso #coronavirus

Let us #PrayTogether for the many people who are concerned for others - families that don't have enough to eat, elderly people who are alone, the sick in hospital - and who pray and seek to help them. We thank the Lord for stirring these sentiments in the hearts of the faithful.
