Thanks @AngelaHanks for putting this plainly. Selling off parts of Ed to Labor isn’t about student success. This move is bad for students and families.
So much work to do on behalf of all students. Thank you @TCFdotorg @newcomernetwork for lifting up this challenging data.

States decide almost every substantive education issue that matters. The one exception involves anti-discrimination. Federal gov has led on that since 1964. In closing multiple civil rights offices, Trump just largely returned that issue to states. npr.org/2025/03/11/nx-s1-532…
@JamesKvaal thanks for joining @EdTrust in sharing what excellence looks like in higher Ed and why we need more of it.
There is a growing number of colleges and universities committed to a new vision of excellence in higher education. Read our new blog post by special guest @usedgov’s Under Secretary of Education, James Kvaal linked here: edtru.st/3PHcUCc

With enough advocacy and political will, together, we can create a system that boasts a high-quality education for all students — regardless of race, identity, or economic background — and promotes student excellence. edtru.st/EduReimagined #EduReimagined

A cornerstone of great pathway systems is offering navigational support and transition tools to K-12 students, including a dedicated counselor. EdTrust & @Ed4All explore the ideal system to ensure all students can access equitable pathways edtru.st/3Xmz1CH
Thanks @Wil_EdTrust for leading a conversation around how we can still ensure all students have a place in higher ed.
“Without #AffirmativeAction, the future looks bleak,” but @Wil_EdTrust says, "With strategic advocacy, we could spur the evolution of #P16 policies & practices, removing barriers that have traditionally impacted students of color.” edtru.st/4cIroLP #EduReimagined
Proud to be part of this effort. Chronic absenteeism can be solved. Let’s do it.
NEW: In a joint op-ed in @thehill, #EdEquity leaders, @Denise_EdTrust, @natmalkus, & @attendanceworks' Hedy Chang, illustrate why & how “halving the chronic absenteeism rate in five years will require an all-hands-on-deck approach.” #EduReimagined

At EdTrust, we have a bold vision for education equity. That’s why I’m thrilled to announce a bold new look for EdTrust. I’d love for you to check out our brand-new website and learn more about how we can reimagine our education system together. #EduReimagined
@DMEforDC @MayorBowser are you ok with this? Such disrespect for our students and team at Eastern High school.

Assessment data drives resources into schools! Turns out, parents like that...A lot! Let's bridge the communication gap. Spread the word. forstudent.org/3KYLd5D @StudentSuccess @Dale_Chu @MunyanPenney @Ariel_Smith_CO

“Let’s be mindful not only of the progress we have made, but the work that still lies ahead, particularly in the current politically charged environment. The celebration of Juneteenth goes beyond a single day.” - @Denise_EdTrust edtru.st/4ci8BH6
