I wouldn't have had the opportunities afforded to me without Public Education. If you feel the same way, PLEASE sign this letter by Feb 26. all4ed.org/publication/...

@lisaschmucki.bsky.social Hi Lisa... we can blend this into our discussion later this week... there are ways to bump up the following here for edweb and you

Congratulations to Alpaca for being recognized at Future of Education Technology Conference 2025 Pitchfest. #edchat #EdTech siliconprairienews.com/2025/02/omah...

Happy Organ Donation Day - Your organ donation can be life changing for so many ... the registration process is soo easy and totally free. registerme.org

A great way to take a break from the STRESS - Spend 15 minutes a day this weekend to PARTICIPATE in the GREAT BACKYARD BIRD COUNT. Time to enjoy nature and wildlife in your area, and contribute to the data collection scientists need regarding migration patterns. Soooo easy and FUN! www.birdcount.org

While the front man makes wild public statements & draws our attention ... DOGE has terminated more than $900 million in Education Department contracts, taking away a key source of data on the quality & performance of the nation’s schools. NO DATA! REALLY? #edchat www.propublica.org/article/depa...

The Trump Administration is breaking the law. Period. Never stop showing this. They are not “implementing unpopular policies” or “auditing the government.” They are breaking the law and ignoring the courts.

I just registered for this important discussion. We owe so much to Public Education, together we are stronger #edchat us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Tesla paid $0 in federal income tax last year. 2022: $0 2021: $0 2020: $0 2019: $0 2018: $0 Tesla reported $6.7 billion in profit in those years.

I believe!

Yes sir!

Thanks to @askadam3.bsky.social for posting this... Pass it On!

Sometimes when we don’t have full knowledge of things we tend to make judgements on what others say it is So in case you don’t know really what DEI means here’s some info to help you see -

One last post for the day - because I don't use X anymore, this post on X made me really laugh...

I just had to repost this @hwinkler4real.bsky.social , you have always known how to bring a smile to my face. This !!

Obviously education is under attack ... as are our personal rights so much more. Job #1 is protect & defend. Job #2 is to provide GOOD SOLID CIVICS instruction for our students and prepare for a better future. Here is a totally FREE comprehensive Civics curriculum. Pass it on. ed.icivics.org

Courage to do what is right starts in school districts like this one... patch.com/new-york/pat...

"Google has become an unintentional health overlord, and the stakes couldn't be higher." READ THIS ARTICLE NOW (before Czar Musk starts censoring free speech.) #edchat #education #NETP #health Google: The Accidental Overlord of Healthcare (Because Why Not?) www.linkedin.com/pulse/google...

I am so tired of all the bad news, it was a pleasure to listen to someone sane again ... even though he was saying good-bye. Buttigieg's farewell address about the 72,000 projects during his 4 years... that have improved life for all Americans. youtu.be/KUYzTcoFBe8?...

90,000 ducks on Long Island also recently euthanized. Serious #publichealth #H5N9

And why isn't this being investigated? Oh right... Musk is in control...

Tres bien and muy bueno 👌

I think today I am at #2. How about you???

This is a great strategy...

Celebrating ALL Black Americans who led the way and were courageous enough to risk all for today and tomorrow's generation of Black Americans - and ALL Americans. Yeah we are still doing that, and like me you don't need to be black to celebrate courage like this...

If you are heading to #TCEA this is an amazing session - definitely one of those resources anyone and everyone could and should use to promote logical thoughtful discourse amonst students. #edchat

Beautiful example of WHY we teach ... we actually want all of our students to succeed and feeling safe is the first step in building the trust needed to make learning happen and flourish. #edchat #eduSky

Congratulations @Brittany Lopes!

Three cheers for all the educators on BlueSky! #edchat #edusky
