Family labsites in LA and Orange County California were such a resounding success last week. I’m looking forward to ongoing shared literacy experiences with children and families, elevating their at-home, authentic language practices in classrooms too. TY Cotsen Foundation and host site schools 🙏🏽♥️

This morning we confirmed a student panel for #CTRH2025 from an incredible Indigenous-led organization that we'll be able to announce next week. Indigenous perspectives have been missing from CTRH, and we're eager to connect our audience of educators to their mission.

Nawal's scholarship and savvy are making me think differently and better about how NYS schools might design and bring their Portraits of Graduates to life in our schools. I've learned much through my partnership with pilot schools this year. More to come. Let's follow Nawal's lead, friends.

Here’s a thread of books I’ve read in 2025 that I’ll keep adding to, in case there are fellow family saga lovers out there to share and recommend. First up, fun and easy bc that’s what I needed. Emily Henry’s Happy Place.

Grateful to work at beautiful places doing impactful things, one of the first being the Star-Ledger newspaper, where I was a journalist and met my husband. I’ll never forget reporting in Iran (for which I won a NJ Press Award). Gathered w former colleagues to mark the end of the print edition. 🗞️📰❤️
