Folks we have a responsibility. We have a constitutional mandate to ensure that the future of our commonwealth - the children we are educating - are getting the education they deserve. Thankful to spread that message yesterday in Reading with @PaHouseDems Leaders and colleagues.

Empowering students of color to envision themselves in #STEM is impacted by learning from educators who look like them & can relate. Colorado has long lacked teachers of color. A Denver nonprofit aims to do something about it. Learn more here.#belonging
