We gave a star-studded welcome to the 2023 #MilkenAward recipients and veteran Milken Educators at the 2024 MEA Forum, complete with a red carpet. Why? Because teachers and principals deserve to be celebrated like the celebrities they are! More photos: milkeneducatorawards.org/new…

Thrilled we were able to restore the two proposed cut positions at @SWWHSA and Hardy Middle School! Thank you to the community who came together to ensure our students have what they need and to my colleagues for your support.
Today, I'm moving two amendments to the budget to restore critical teaching positions at @SWWHSA & ensure funding for a pilot I started last year for security & custodian supports at @ Garrison & Banneker.
Our students deserve every opportunity to thrive, learn, and be safe.

These are some of the many reasons why @SWWHSA should be provided with enough funds to keep all their programs and teaching positions. Please sign the petition here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…

Imagine DCPS schools thinking this is the right time to cut high school theater programs
.@ChmnMendelson @RobertWhite_DC @AnitaBondsDC @kenyanmcduffie @charlesallen @brookepintodc @CMFrumin @Janeese4DC - Without your action, SWWHS families will lose access to the theatre arts program. This essential part of the high school experience, gone. #FullyFundPublicSchools

@washingtonpost @ChmnMendelson @RobertWhite_DC @CMBrookePinto @BrianneKNadeau @MayorBowser, what does it say that DC's top performing school which is over capacity and growing will lose two whole programs when it would only cost about $210k to save?

My daughter just had a formative experience in the school musical at School Without Walls. Now the drama program is on the chopping block along with part of the foreign language program. @BrianneKNadeau is right. We can't let that happen if we care about DC's future.
If we want to fight truancy, prevent crime, fill DC jobs with DC residents & help our students succeed, then we must prioritize educator & student wellness, both financially & emotionally, in early childhood, adult education & every level in between. brianneknadeau.com/updates/u…

TY to Dana Springer & @sandramoscoso for representing @SWWHSA & its request to provide 💵 to KEEP all @SWWPenguins teachers for FY25. No reason a school that is ⬆️ enrollment should LOSE teachers!!! #NoBudgetCuts #FullyFundPublicSchools

🔥Student Anna Mayer of @SWWHSA: "I hope that you and your colleagues understand that the future of this city lies in our schools. If you would like to put a bandaid on the problems of this city with crime bills and sports teams, fine. But you must also invest as much—if not more—time, energy, and money into the future citizens and leaders of this city."

Student Addis Getachew testifies that programs like drama "Provides you a community and group of friends who like the same things you do that you don't know how much you need until you have it, and are at risk of losing it."
DON'T CUT THE ARTS! @ChmnMendelson
