I feel like people shouldn't be allowed to talk about/write about graduation rates without providing a comparison to at least one college readiness indicator. The gaps are staggering, especially for Black and brown kids. SAT/ACT provide these numbers for every state.

Tennessee has emerged as a standout state for literacy leadership, and @scottlangford72 captures the comprehensiveness of the @TNedu approach beautifully.
Definitely must-know work. Kudos to @SchwinnTeach @lisacoons10 for their #Reading360 leadership!

The absolutely brilliant @MASchoolsK12 grant program is back in 2023.
It supports replacement of weak curriculum with better materials & funds professional learning to support transitions.

We've spent a lot of time over the past few years discussing the unique challenges that Covid posed for women, & specifically mothers. But the truth is that women's experiences of pandemic life can't be reduced to a single narrative.

Many curricula, and especially @TeachersCollege Reading Workshop, put a premium on students writing about their own experiences, or topics they haven’t studied.
@natwexler explains how this is inconsistent with cognitive science.
