Smoke from wildfires in eastern Canada is affecting areas across PA, and we expect it will continue through Thursday.
Children, older adults, and anyone with respiratory issues should consider limiting your time outside for now.

Thanks @NewsHour @pbsnewshour
for sharing our apprentices’ stories and their “why” for joining the #BlackTeacherPipeline! As many of them told us: #WeNeedBlackTeachers so we will become what we need! @CenterBlackEd @GTLCenter @watlington_sr @PADeptofEd @SLABeeberHSA @PHLschools
As part of our ongoing series on higher education, we focus on why developing and recruiting more Black teachers is especially important for Black students to ensure they continue and finish their education. to.pbs.org/3MzB3rB
